Painting From Digital

GHOST YELL

As a part of Digital Drawing we had to create a real world version of one of our 100 digital pieces. This is an oil painting I did by printing out a color print of the digital image, pasting it to panel and then painting directly on top of the image. Its a technique I borrowed from my studio-mate John Skibo, who can paint photorealistic when he wants to. The process was very different from what I'm used to, but it wasn't very difficult, just time consuming, and my results look a lot like the digital version, which was my goal. I actually did two of these but currently only have pictures of the one, I'll try to add images of the other later.
