Daily Deviation PSD

Posted in Pseudoart on April 21st, 2009

As my newest wallpaper, Growth, unexpectedly got a Daily Deviation at Deviantart, I got asked a lot of times for the original render, techniques and such. I thought I'd give a little bit back to the community, by letting people see the original PSD. I remember when my Photoshop skills were a bit rough, and seeing other peoples PSD really helped me out.

Therefore, the full resolution PSD of Growth can be downloaded here. Feel free to ask questions here on the blog and I'll answer the best I can. It is a 15 mb download and in Photoshop CS4 format.

I were quite surprised at the DD, though, as this wallpaper has been lying on harddisk for nearly a year, and I didn't really like it that much. I added some additional grading and texture and then released it anyhow.

Drawing on walls

Posted in Personal on April 11th, 2009

As I recently posted in the Portfolio, I'm currently doing artsy stuff on my livingroom wall. I expect to have another afternoons work in front of me before I can call it a done deal. While I have worked on things like this before, it's the first time I do it directly on a wall. It's a lot of fun. I'll also record the second session as I did with the first, and conclude it all with an blog post about methods used, as well as detailed shots of the whole thing.

I also expect to do the same thing on my lavatory, the office and my bedroom. The office is slated to become my daughters room in a few years time. She's currently living with her mother who's in a different part of the country for the time being. My plans with the office is to go Hello Kitty on the thing. Also, PINK! Lavatory will be organic, trees, birds, water and all that. However, I'm a bit unsure about what to do with the bedroom. I'm open for suggestions though! :)

Huge site update

Posted in Pseudoart on April 2nd, 2009

I've finally finished a massive update. My portfolio is now online, as well as an extensive tag system. All wallpapers, portfolio items and blog posts are cross referenced through tags. This does make the tag page a bit ugly, due to the different ways of showing those three seperate sections, but it will have to do, for now. The RSS feed is still missing the portfolio, though - but it will come soon.

Thank you for your patience - I hope you'll enjoy.
