To the Motherland

Description

"In the phrases of songs and poems bread is gold, it is the motherland, it is the hard work of the masses, it is life itself." - Seth Mydans

This was originally gonna be a contest entry for the James and the Giant Peach thing, but I felt a little iffy about not being able to include my signature in the submission. I like to have my signature on all my art. -OCD twitch- Sooo, now it's just a painting for fun. <3 I like jellyfish - they're beautiful to watch.

Step-by-step process: [link]

EDIT: Decided the contrast was too low and generally washed out the piece, so I added a texture from www.cgtextures.com to deepen the piece.

Tools: Photoshop CS3 + Wacom Graphire tablet

Incredible shading. :O
I also love the contrast of that dark blue against the orange.
