ThereIsNoJustice's Sketchbook
@ThereIsNoJustice: I definitely think a balance between long and short studies is important. Right now, since I am not doing much of anything, I think short studies are better for me. This way I am at least drawing and painting and not making excuses.

I hear what you are saying about painting being a full brain workout. I have a sculpting background, and most of the sculpture is an intense process with a lot of thought going into it. It's not until the end when I am detailing the piece that I can relax and go on autopilot.

I think you have to be careful when using the smudge brush. It can yield pleasing effects, but you have to know how much strength to use and where too use it. The first digital painting tutorial I watched used the smudge brush a lot, so I started using it. But now I don't use it as much. I have learned how to blend using just a pressure sensitive brush (even on 100% opacity and flow).

I kind of like both the clean and finished look as well as painterly. I'm not more fond of one style over another. It depends on what I'm painting and what style I want to go with. But I don't have enough experience anyway to know how to really achieve that painterly look digitally. Although I can't say I have tried either. But I'm working toward it.
