Description

A tutorial for my most recent piece, "The Rider". I hope this is easy to follow and that it will help to explain my work flow, as well as possibly be a learning tool for someone out there. I tried to document the process each evening I worked on it. Unfortunately, it ended up taking awhile to finish since I had to take some time to let it dry between layers. Hopefully, this will help someone!

Featured your excellent tutorial

Open Room UpstairsReach for the sky, climb those mountains in the distance, dream of who you would become if anything is attainable. What you attempt, becomes ever more tangible, as you push away the hidden barriers of self-doubt, and you overcome obstacles with each step, however big or small, toward your goal. This could be the year you break through into the future you always hoped possible, with hard effort. Dare to give your best, and you'll never lay there wishing and wondering what could have been, if only you'd tried harder, but remember to pursue them with a right spirit and purpose. Psalm 37:3-5 adjures us, "Trust in the Lord, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed. Delight thyself also in the Lord: and He shall give thee the desires of thine heart. Commit thy way unto the Lord; trust also in Him; and He shall bring it to pass." It is difficult, but in victory, nay, even in the journey, you will know greater joy that you have the support of He who made you w Have a blessed day! -Debra
