so people really liked the tennis kirbys and a few people requested I make it a looping background so dont say I never did anything for you!
(the bottom 3 are like phone backgrounds I guess lol)
*If you use any of these i’d appreciate a small credit or a reblog thank you!!
I really like the aesthetic of the skies in Steven universe and I wanted to test out the style. I think if I spent more time on it they’d look cleaner but I’m pretty happy with it. Especially the top three.
friday night tutorial time

This is an exceptional breakdown on how to approach illustrations depicting a scene. Characters and backgrounds should not be considered seperately when you are painting an image of a character interacting within a setting. They are a single visual entity; a narrative. Likewise, a painting doesn’t need to include a detailed environment to be successful. It depends on your goal for what you wish to communicate.
I really like this post..! It’s very succinct about something I have tried to explain myself and have not been very good at explaining. What an excellent resource!
