Digital Palouse Sketch


Though I have previously worked with a Wacom tablet in the past, this proved to be yet another learning experience for which I had the opportunity to work with more tools and challenge myself. After reviewing the original photo, I noted the more dynamic and integral elements of the scene and what would be the most challenging to portray. The wheat fields in the foreground, with their sweeping sense of movement and visual texture, became my focus and was the most time consuming portion of my sketch. I am satisfied with the end result, though I hope in the future to perfect my hand control and stability of lines drawn with the tablet and stylus.
