A Mundane Life is a piece that challenged me a lot because I worked on it for weeks and at some point I felt like I would not be able to finish it, but I stayed patient and kept going. The idea came from observing two loved ones just living their normal lives, and I found something really beautiful in that simple moment. I wanted to capture that same feeling in my work, which became the main theme of the piece. The challenge was trying to translate what I saw and felt into the artwork, because it was not easy to show that kind of quiet beauty. Even though I struggled, I continued working on it until I felt satisfied with the result, and in the end I believe I was able to capture it. I used Photoshop & IbisPaint X as my drawing programs. My process started with a sketch, followed by rendering using a grayscale method to build values and depth. I also photo bashed some objects on the background and the view outside the window. After that, I added color using different blending modes, and I finished the piece by applying a noise filter to give it a grainy texture. This is also my first time creating a large and detailed piece for both myself and a project.
