Commission of my digital art turned physical. Can’t believe someone asked for this within a week of posting the illustration. They originally asked for a print, but I mentioned that I could also do a physical acrylic piece - sold!
As an established international artist now (< apply a sarcastic tone), my artwork is an exploration of pareidolia - the physiological phenomenon where the brain interprets random visual patterns as faces.
I start by freely drawing the black outlines, then add eyes, teeth, lips - wherever a face jumps out at me. Next, I add colour. I don’t really have an explanation for my colour choices; I just pick the ones that feel right. From there, I add more texture with patterns and lines.
And that’s it. That’s my process. Mind-blowing stuff, eh? Probably the next Picasso over here…
