Painting Process: Shaman

I chose “Shaman” to be my first painting to record for Youtube since I planned to make it one of the featured images on the website at launch. She is a magical fairy with the ability to evolve trees into stronger trees using her magic. Trees are one of the creature types (yes, trees are creatures in this magical world) that you can use to customize your deck, and Shaman’s ability can be an important part of your strategy.

I started with a sketch that had some elements that I ended up changing by the end of the painting. From there I did the initial blocking in stage, and then the fun part of rendering. I used mostly a simple set of brushes but I did play around with some texture and foliage brushes as well. This was painted on my iPad pro using Procreate.
