Abstract Photos

My first three efforts using Photoshop

 15 minute landscape drawing.  This was my very first attempt at drawing with Photoshop and because of that it didn't come out that well in my opinion. It looks too childish and unimaginative, but good for my first try non the less.  Hopefully in the future my landscape pictures will appear more in depth and interesting.

 30 minute self-portrait.  Believe it or not but this painting of myself actually sort of creeps me out because of it's facial details.  The style of this picture actually reminds me of the "Salad Fingers" Youtube videos.  I ran out of time before I could finish drawing my shirt and adding finishing touches.  Overall though I think it's a pretty good first attempt of drawing a person in Photoshop.

60 minute freestyle picture.  I am really pleased with the way this painting came out.  The inspiration for this picture came from an album cover of one of my favorite electronic music artists, Distance.  My goal with this painting was to make it look dark and gloomy in an attempt to capture the grit of big cities, thus I stuck with mostly grey, black, and dark blue for the color scheme.  I decided to use a greenish-yellow color for the lights and moon to appropriately contrast the rest of the dark colors used. I plan on drawing more pictures like this in the future.
