Jimi Hendrix
I wanted to do one of those 60's/70's portraits and settled on Jimi.
Since I was going to paint digitally, I tried to keep it as loose as possible to force myself to rely more on painting, but I liked that I got his character.
Jimi Hendrix, pencil-CS4 and painter, mostly painter. One of the first
digital images that I was sorta happy with, my monitor made it light,
while it looked super-saturated in print and other screens. This was the
moment I decided to finally buy a large screen instead of working on
my small laptop screen. I painted him with minimal hues, but was
suggested that this being Hendrix, I go full
saturated psychedelic until my eyes bled. Tried several versions.
Still working on fine tuning this. Here are the better three version, I kept tinkering with the 60's/70's wild colour schemes. I have a dozen or more versions....someday I'll get it right.
Oh, btw no filters used.
