Blogging/Art SpotlightBy joelharris(20) (This article was transferred. Original post date was 10/4/2006 8:34 AM) It's taken me a long while to come around to blogging. Sure, I had used Livejournal a few years ago, but honestly, blogging and public journaling were synonymous with a false sense of self-importance to me. I try to retain a modicum of humility in life, and that's hopefully translated to my web persona as well. Having said that, I do like the idea of my visitors getting to know a bit about my thought processes, especially when it comes to my art. And quite frankly, I'm too lazy to make separate html pages for each piece of art to explain the medium and add commentary. So, starting right now, I will spotlight a piece here with some specific thoughts on it. Kind of like a DVD's special features, if you will. Today, I'll explain a bit about the coloring I did on the Falcon (found in the "Colors" section of my galleries). Click on image for larger version:  This was a drawing done for me by Mr. Darryl (Green Lantern) Banks, who is a gracious and outstanding artist. Believe it or not, this drawing was pencils-only. He pencils so tightly that inks would almost be redundant. The Falcon is one of my favorite Marvel characters, so it was a pleasure to color this one.I colored it in Photoshop CS using a variety of techniques including variation of lasso feathering, color holds, etc. I'll be creating a tutorial on my coloring soon, which I will post here, so be on the lookout. That's about it from me at the moment. Until next time, Joel This Blog Post has been read 1 times.
