Poppin' Pin-Ups (Nurse Joy) Pt.02 Timelapse

In this 'lapse we go trough the polishing phase of the (Masked) Nurse Joy Piece. I use the "Color Range" feature in Photoshop to isolate the lighter areas and I make them even lighter by throwing a "Screen" layer on top. You'll note that as I render I'm constantly checking back to my color palette; making sure that the colors feel right. 

ARTIST TIP: Always be conscientious about the temperature of the room when rendering in your darker parts and shadows. Depending on whether you'd like the overall piece to feel hot or cold you should always change the tone of the shadows to match that. If its a hot room then have your light areas around the reddish spectrum of the color wheel and your darks around the blue spectrum. If its a cold room then switch it up. Blue spectrum for the lights / Red Spectrum for the darks.

Doing things this way👆🏽will keep your work vibrant and will help it Pop.

Happy Painting. 💜
