Environment Art

[Earl Grey]

This started as just a way to chill out and unwind after work but I started to learn a little more about environment art and became a bit of a hobby.
I still have a super long way to go (There's about a hundred things I hate about every picture) but progress is steadily getting there.

I'm always open to tips to improve!

That’s pretty cool!

I never thought of doing that.

[Expendable]

Very nice! Love your trees! The rocks are very well done, love your use of mist and clouds, it gives it dimension.

[Endynyp]

I think those are lovely. I like that the way you implied clouds in the first one.

I really like these and they have a calming effect over me when I look at them

I agree

Have you ever watched Bob Ross?

Have you ever watched Bob Ross?

I have watched quite a few, yes. It's where I get most of my technique from. While he paints on canvas, some of his tricks are more difficult to pull off digitally, that being said, most of what he teaches can be used.

I could tell.
Have you ever tried painting irl?
If not I would suggest trying it.

These are beautiful, really. They show good composition and value knowledge! They're simple without being too cluttered, too. I find that having too cluttered a landscape piece can detract from what you want people to notice first in your art. For most of these, that appears to be the mountains or the lakes, while the trees sit beside them both, waiting for you to notice them next.

You may wanna check out the FREE program Krita.

Have a look here what you can do with it:

Hey love the pics, especially that beautiful one with the white background! Hope you share more and improve as you go on.

Krita's nice, but it doesn't play well with every tablet brand, sadly. If you have Wacom you're good to go, but if you have offbrand like Huion or XP-Pen, you may not fare as well with the program. Hell, it even had problems with my 6 year old Wacom tablet for some dumb reason. : /

Good program otherwise, though.

Is it bad that I’ve never heard of this? But then again, I’m more a pencil drawer...so

[Catacombs]

These are extremely good.
