THE SHADOW AND SOLACE OF TEMPERANCE
Reworked
Although I was happy with the first version of this card, as an image, I hadn't explored everything that I'd wanted about this particular episode of the story, so I've spent time re-working it. As usual, I have produced about ten versions, some close to the narrative but conveying different aspects of it through colour, such as the first two posted here. Others, I enjoy simply as images, such as the last of the three.

Very mysterious with the second version, blue shows it off much better. Awesome piece!
ReplyDeleteOMG Lumi it's awesome.
ReplyDeleteThis is such a beautiful composition that they are all beautiful and perfect - no matter the colors. The blue one has a lightness to it - like primer before the paint.
ReplyDeleteLumi,Your digital work is absolutely breathtaking!!!! Do you work in Photoshop to transform your images?
