The thing about your artwork that amazes me is the surreal details and plot that they breathe. I am so happy to have found this picture

Seems like a sad story, as though they are trapped in their relationships against their wills ... beautiful drawing and well tinted too!

Thanks. If that's the case then you must have a weird imagination as well.

Very interesting once again, maybe you should have painted this though....

I agree, paint creates a much more satisfying finish, but I find it very time-consuming at the moment. I might end up using elements of this image in a painting at a later date.

Wow! Great job! Your art is !!! Is all your coloring done in PS? I thought it was colored pencils or something like that.

I mostly just use normal pencils. Once I'm happy (or bored) with a pencil drawing, I scan it into the computer and use PS to add thin layers of colour. By thin I mean I reduce the opacity, and use layer properties like soft light or multiply, so that the texture of the original drawing isn't obscured.

Thanks for the info. You make it sound so easy. It really makes your artwork standout. I might have to give it a try.
