I do occasionally use a lot of airbrush, but always over top of brush work, otherwise airbrushing is fine for cars and plate glass, but there's not much warmth in it. The tree and the airbrush to block in the gathering darkness of the storm came next. Much of the grass was done with a fine pen, and the nearer grass is done with pencil crayon on a dark gound. (This is going to end up being a how-to session, hope you're still with me) Once through the mist and down in the grass, things are easier, it's much simpler to control deeper tones than light ones. Once it was more or less laid out, the background was worked up in a succession of washes, each time going back over the whole thing to subdue the details and push them back into the distance. Everything came fairly naturally, though I did a lot of fiddling with the pose and angle of view before I was satisfied. It all started with a photo of a tree, and a desire to have a go at doing Gandalf. This painting is emblematic of many things, and I have a lot to say about it, so bear with me!
