[Commission] For Claire

Added 2020-12-22 23:55:16 +0000 UTC

This commission was finished earlier in the month as the client paid to have it finished for the holidays. I'm really happy with how it came out, given that I've been struggling with some burn out and haven't really felt as inspired by my work as of late.

What really drove me to finishing was working on the lace, which I was at first a little apprehensive about - I feel that I'm not that great at designing lace patterns, and end up relying too much on pre-existing ones, as well as brush assets on CSP. I wanted very much to avoid that for a change, and so looked at a couple different lingerie patterns and settled for a simple flower inspired one for this piece here.

It was also nice being able to colour in this style. I have only recently added it as part of my offered commissions, this sketchy line art and flat colouring style. It's what I've been using on some personal pieces here and there, and though I've felt a little off with my art, being able to draw this way and with these textured brushes gives me joy while working.
