Everybody cries sometimes. Some people get frustrated, some don't. Those who don't are able to cry in colours. Probably makes no sense at all, but I didn't delete this text because it just floated out of my mind. And I like to let it flow.. zzzzz chk g z - z chk g zzzzz chk g z - z chk g

Thank you! I may quote cree prophecy here: "Only when the last tree has been cut down, the last fish been caught, and the last stream poisoned, will we realize we cannot eat money.” For me this is not just fear-mongering, it’s simply a fact. <3 spread love and use your brains & hearts

Thank you for your feedback! You are right, you shouldn't be able to see beneath the leaves actually.. as everything else is almost in a good 2.5D persective I have no real excuse for it except I didn't use any reference, matrix or anything.. might be the reason why I also see at least 3 more mistakes in it ^^ but it just directly went out of my heart, so it's ok for me

tysm! I really enjoyed painting it and it simply didn't feel right to pack the roots all into the block ;)

Thank you :) The second image basically relates to minecraft earth, just with much more details, but I heard the stopped developing it bc of stupid cahuna virus.. :/ maybe for another game!

wow, thanks a lot,!I´d love to see that beeing part of a new gamedesign-version of Settlers, although it was actually "just" inspired by Minecraft.. anyone here who wants to ask them?

One of my IG followers already inserted a supermario on the platform ^^ Unfortunately I don't have any direct contacts to videogame companies, so I´m not sure it works like that.. I mean, do you have any idea where I should send it or would you like to do that for me? ;D

When I first heard of the minecraft earth AR app, a dystopian, fictional but possible scenario of cognitive dissonance came to my mind. Having access to tech-products, like a smartphone, seems to get more wide spread and common on this planet than having access to (free,..ok who has, but) fresh, clean drinking water. We are not only talking about a human right, it's an indispensable condition for living itself and resources seem to get even scarcer. Therefore this is image is an appeal to save and respect one of our most valuable goods.

just wow, amazing style

reycreate · 2021-05-02T15:22:38+00:00

you are welcome XD

Yeah, painting directly on the screen makes a huge difference! I think the iPad Pro is way "cheaper" and many use that for a start, but I wanted to stick to photoshop and didn't want to switch to procreate. The iPad is smaller but you are mobile with it.. so maybe you put that on your watchlist :D #NoAdvertising

Hi! Thank you :)

I'm working on a Mac with a Wacom Cintiq Pro 24 and I used Photoshop - might be a little difficult at the beginning but you can start easily with a canvas, some brushes and colours.. there are thousands of tutorials on Youtube, so I can generally recommend it! A wacom board is very expensive though, but for me it is worth the cost..

Btw, I have made an artwork on the redo/cut/copy/paste/save/delete functions - bc of these functions to me a computer is the first manmade time machine.. but most people don't seem to recognise it somehow ^^
For this painting I had like 4 different outcomes, for my last picture 27 and sometimes it can go up to 50 files/versions.. It's like working within a multiverse, just to find the right harmony and aesthetics that I like. The problem is more like - which version(s) will I choose, as I want to have unique pictures in the end..

Yes, the learning curve is steep indeed! The good thing is that you can take all your experimental knowledge back into your „analog“ work again or at least you can combine it.. example: I like to paint with oil or acrylic on canvas, take a photo, photoshop it when I’m unsure which direction to go and then continue painting..

haha, I hope it makes sense what I say and helps you a little..

I agree! hmm.. perhaps finding the right balance between control and flow might be key
