Meeting of Land and Water I have found that my paintings turn out the best when I have a good mental image of them before I start painting. This often involves some research. Ideally it is good to have several types reference. Here are a few snapshots that I took while visiting the rocky coasts of California. I often do several thumbnail sketches to find the best composition. Photoshop Vidéo Tutorials Templactif Mantis Queen Concept Searching for inspiration I decided the Praying Mantis would be an ideal subject as their exotic forms would work well with the pattern work I wished to apply. I knew I wanted the character to be imposing, someone who would study the viewer as much as the viewer studied them. This very quickly gave me an idea of the type of composition I wanted; I knew the viewer needed to be looking up at the character, enhancing the air of superiority for the character. Sometimes I have a very clear color scheme in mind for a piece but this time I chose to start in greyscale, allowing me to focus on composition and form. A lack of color scheme from the outset isn’t really a problem because as the piece began to solidify a color scheme would present itself to me. Brushes I have numerous shape brushes ranging from paint strokes to patterns based around tribal designs.

CANDIDS • (mycandids.tk) Making of The Blues Singer Leaves Town This picture was done in a hot summer day, in the memory of an old anime series I used to watch as a kid, about Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn. Historically, it’s off from that period, but it’s the feeling of summer, childhood fascination and nature that I wanted to re-create. It’s also a tribute to music. The picture was done to resemble an animation still, cel-shaded characters over a “traditionally” painted background. I tried to do this digitally, using colour as if I were working with watercolours. For inspiration, I also had an open book with Oga Kazuo’s work. I started out by sketching the background. I sketched in a separate transparent layer. I was satisfied at this point, even though it’s still rough and not very pretty. I started to put down colours. I also did the sky gradient.
le Site Codage.Cursus Auteur : Sparrow-style Limiter la taille d'un bloc Etant donné que nous avons vu rapidement l'overflow dans l'étape précédente, ce début d'étape ne sera finalement qu'un rappel sur son fonctionnement. L'overflow est donc un moyen de bloquer la taille d'un bloc, mais il n'est pas toujours nécessaire. En effet, si vous limitez ou imposez une largeur à un bloc mais que vous n'imposez pas de hauteur, le bloc s'étirera autant que nécessaire pour afficher votre texte sans nécessiter d'overflow. 1) Imposer une largeur et limiter la largeur. Cela parait être la même chose, mais ça ne l'est pas. Rappel : Vous ne pouvez utiliser ces propriétés css que pour des balises de type "block", et non "inline". Vous savez imposer une largeur : width: 500px; Ici votre bloc fera 500px de largeur. max-width: 500px; Ainsi, la largeur ne pourra pas dépasser les 500px. Attention, il vous faut prendre en compte que les deux codes sont différents min-width 2) L'overflow pour gérer ce qui dépasse du bloc : Oui !
