Unveiling "Crimson Soul" - A Journey in Digital Painting

Hello Beauty artisans,
I'm excited to finally share my latest digital artwork with you all: "Crimson Soul." You can also find it minted as an NFT on NFTShowroom here: [Link to NFT: https://nftshowroom.com/gallery/dreeyor_reeyors-vault_crimson-soul ]

This piece has been a bit of a journey, starting with a mental image that took shape after viewing some really inspiring art. There were certain compositions and emotional qualities in those works that sparked the initial idea for "Crimson Soul." I wanted to explore the contrast between a seemingly calm exterior and a vibrant inner world.

The creation process in MediBang Paint Pro was quite intuitive for this piece. I primarily relied on the airbrush to build up the subtle gradations in the skin tones, aiming for a soft, almost ethereal quality. Then came the introduction of the crimson elements – these were applied with the airbrush as well, layering the color to achieve the intensity I envisioned.

To create that sense of the "soul" bleeding through or interacting with the form, the smudge brush became my go-to tool. It allowed me to blend the sharp lines and create a more fluid connection between the grayscale and the fiery reds. Here and there, I also used the blur brush to soften edges and add a touch of atmospheric depth.

There was a slight delay in being able to share this with you all, but I'm really happy with how "Crimson Soul" has materialized. It represents my exploration of inner intensity and the way it can manifest even within a serene facade.

I'd love to hear your thoughts on this piece! You can also check out more of my work in my NFTShowroom gallery: [Link to gallery: https://nftshowroom.com/dreeyor/gallery ]
