Acrylic paint on canvas.
Was able to create raised texture, I really enjoy that when working with acrylic :) I work without a reference so I just had a quick Google search before starting and then painted off the top of my head, so it might not be accurate @-@
Thank you so muchhhh Ur comment made me rlly happyyyy!! I google searched ‘octopus’ and there is a feature where u can look at a 3D model of it. I do a lot of different things so I can’t really point out a certain style I like best…
When painting this I first made a very rough sketch (it’s was ugly af) then painted the bg over it and color blocked the basic shapes while also building up paint to raise the texture, lastly I added all the details.
Yes! And the shading looks very clean too.
I’d be curious to see what the very rough sketch looks like. Painting from your memory might feel vulnerable but yields much more interesting results in the end – Georgia O’Keeffe didn’t need her flowers to look perfect, she just painted how she felt they looked, and that made them all the more beautiful. I hope you keep developing your style, without fear of being wrong.
