Eat Shit Before The Dessert | Painting Study

Another painting study! :) I'm making like 6 painting studies for a series. This is the second digital painting since I got my pen tablet and I'm still getting used to it. The pressure, the sensitivity, the brushes, etc. It takes a while to get used to it. It's fun tho!



Here's the process for the painting study:



First was making a rough sketch. Just making sure to balance the elements and not make it too crowded. A month ago, I did a rough sketch of this on paper as well and it looks quite different from it. Quite different but still same composition and concept. I didn't expect I'd want it to have 5 layers and 7 girls there tho. I thought 2 girls and 1 cake is enough ;)

Next, I experimented with the colors. Since I wasn't sure about what colors I wanted for this, I just tried and see what looks best. The left one looks okay to me but too pale for my taste. I chose the right one.






Then I hid those layers with the colors and worked on with finalizing the drawing. I added strawberries and icing!

I added the initial colors for it. It reminds me of that Strawberry Shortcake cartoon. Although I've never really watched it before, I remember collecting some stickers of it when I was a kid.

Then I improved the colors.

The last step is adding the necessary things to it. Some random doodles and I might add more in the final painting on canvas.

That was it. I prefer explaining my concept with my finished painting on canvas but I'm curious to know your interpretations if you have some to it. It will greatly help me with the development of the series. ^^

Well like pretty much everything in this world you have to eat the shit and struggle till you get to the level that you shit and everyone else has got to eat it!
And you have shown it vividly! <3

Woah, I've never seen it with this perspective. I didn't even think of the layered cakes as something about levels in life. My concept is quite different, but a bit related. Probably because I don't care about competition that much (although we know life is one and we all have to compete to survive) and never really cared about who's more successful in life, who's got more, etc. Yours is also spot on! Thanks for the input, I truly appreciate it :D

Haha yeah. That applied to me as well. I seem to focus more on negative things, I tend to eat shit first even though I know there's lots of sweetness around me T_T hahaha
