Of course, that was during my student years, so not many people have seen my earliest attempts. That being said, I definitely plan to do posts on the transition to inks, including the ways that my competing styles have actually helped each other (in my opinion).<br /><br />I have no plans to do washes at this time, but it's always in the back of my mind, esp. after seeing artists like Steve Epting use it to such great effect. If I ever do, I think it will have to be for a smaller project, just to test it out.<br /><br />Thank you for the artist suggestions too. The names are definitely familiar, though I need to refresh my memory.Paolo Riverahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11088106827920011644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8959702978311327862.post-23390138380572560082010-01-27T23:09:39.243-08:002010-01-27T23:09:39.243-08:00Your process posts have been very enlightening to ...Your process posts have been very enlightening to me.

You have covered many topics pertaining your process and daily work.<br />I would like to request that you talk about your transition from paint to ink. I believe there is much to discuss. It seems to me like based on your work and background you are at your core a painter. You talk and think like one. Currently you both pencil and ink your own work. You now think in terms of black and white and contrast. No value or color. Your inked work looks finished. By this I mean it works without color. This is so even considering you are lately coloring your work using<br /> the computer. If you wanted to save time since you do your own coloring you could spot black areas and if big just cover them in Photoshop color stage. <br />This also leads to you discussing scanning inks versus painted pages. You still tweak blacks in photoshop for optimizing for print. <br />Also since you seem to have permanently chosen to ink your Marvel work will you start using washes and therefore value ? I hope you get the idea and cover this new topics. Also since you have talked about painters you love. Let me suggest you research Alberto Breccia the master of the ink realm. In my humble opinion the best there is. He experimented with inks like no one else. If you want to find out what are the capabilities of the ink medium check him out.
