An accomplished author contacted me a short while ago seeking to enhance the visual aspect of his stories. This is a concept piece for a book cover illustration of a protagonist in one of the author's many writings. Without disclosing the story or other sensitive information I wanted to display the progress of the painting.
In this work, I had the opportunity to experiment more with pre-customized brushes and created some custom brushes for myself. I needed a special brush to simulate the African hair, and even though it has not gone through the final pass, I am very pleased with the result. There is yet much to do but this was completed in a couple sittings as sample work and I am enjoying the progress thus far.
