Sketchbook 2.0

[Piotr Jasielski]

like all the nature studies you've been doing all your paintings have a natural brush strokey like feel. I like that

Thanks :)

Your environment studies are beautiful! The colours are coming through really well. I think at the moment what your pieces seem to be lacking is a clear lighting set-up? Pushing through some different lighting would really help sell some of the 3D setups. It's understandable that you're p. focused on materials at the moment and they're looking great, but something to consider in the future (:

Thanks. Yes I wasn't focusing on the light source, just the basic form, but sure I will work on that.

HI Piotr,

Thanks for the kind words in my sketchbook. Your work is great! I really like the way you handle textures. I don't know how big your reference for the Frederic Church painting was, but I think you would benefit from seeing the painting up close to really see all those juicy textural strokes he used. HERE's a link to a fairly larger version.

Hey thanks, I don't remember how big my ref was, I was focusing on big shapes and form in this one. It's great to have a bigger sample though to see the details, thanks :)

sorry for no being active recenty. I had a lot of stuff going on.

below some doodles i actually saved (I'm not saving most of them lately, feels like a waste of space and time) and then some are too big and I'm too lazy to resize them...

edit: a sketch I plan to finish on stream today (hopefully)
