I made this drawing few minutes ago as my entry to the Love The Clouds Contest by @tobetada . I had so much fun conceptualizing and creating my entry and did not notice that it was already time. That is how I enjoyed every moment of the process and was able to capture some of the progress below
Making the building
I started with the idea of a tall building with a bold color. I want to emphasize a big window too because this is where I will put one of my subjects later on.
Here the window is taking form as I added the white shutters and some stones around it. I also added the black railing and the platform which I will easily attach to the building anytime I wish.
I love the color of the building and to avoid it looking flat I added this texture. I dragged the railing first to the side so I can work freely on the texture.
Making the girl
The girl wearing an orange dress is my other subject. I want her clothes and hair to fly freely in the breeze. That is my goal
Now I dragged her to the building so I can adjust her size and see where I can position her better.
Making the clouds
Finally and the easiest part to make are the clouds. I just freely formed them and if I like what I see I keep the shape and sometimes duplicate it if I needed more clouds to fill the blue skies.
The big white cloud is a duplicate of the one on top of the girls head. I had to position them well to create that gigantic cloud effect over the horizon. The smaller clouds and varying shades of white help give this drawing some depth.
