This is the second round of working this picture of succulents. I originally made a less realistic version of it here.
It was colorful and fun, focusing more on the bright-color aspect and less on the real, true-to-form colors of the succulent. I told myself I’d come back to work using the very same reference image but doing it in a different style. And this is the result. It’s still a work-in-progress, but here are some images from the working second version.
The working second version. There is still cleaning and refining to do. But note the realistic style I’m aiming for, aside from the pink outline — which I like as a contrast from the dark green.
Side-by-side zoom-in shots of two succulents in the image.
A zoom-in of a succulent, colored. With the original gray lines and pink overlapping + highlighted edges.
In another post, I show the lines from the image with various background colors. It’s fun to play with the original lines of a drawing and explore all of the possibilities. You can see that here.
