How I Start Creating My Artwork

How I create art from emotions and thoughts - James Hurley - Art

Monday morning starts with a coffee and a look at how I start creating my digital art work

Generally I pull the thoughts and emotions that are “troubling” me out of my mind and onto paper or onto a document of some type. I then find the central focus point of the image that is hiding in my mind via Envato Elements or Shutterstock and I pull off images that feel right and match the colours that relate to the mood / story that Im building.

In this work in progress Ive reached a point where Im questioning the depth of the core image Ive selected, in that where Ive cut out pieces of the models legs to show her crumbling under pressure the model image now looks too flat so I now need to think about adding the depth to that tiny part of the artwork perhaps the addition of seaweed and barnacles or a crab Im not sure…..

Why not tell me what you think and what ideas you can think of for me to finish off this piece, or maybe I should simply park it now as its done what its needed to do and cleared my mind of those nasty negative thoughts……
