RE: The Fox / Digital Art

Fantastic, it's always good to see proposals that break away from what you usually show. You're talking about digital art. Could you talk a little about the technique and how you achieved those colors in the background and the fox?

Thanks so much. I used scanned paper filled with watercolor and ink for the background. The fox was based on a photo I found online, which I traced with ink on paper and then scanned. I reworked it digitally, focusing on the flow of the lines. For the colors, I layered the scanned textures and used brushes I’ve collected and created over the years. I test different color versions and scaling until everything feels right.

What’s funny is that my first decade as an artist was all digital. I did so much of it that I lost touch with the real world. That’s why I started painting and doing street art — to reconnect with my core and physical materials. Nowadays, I mix everything and do both.
