Gstoute theme project 8

Hey so the basic idea behind this piece is a commentary on manual labor and how advancements in technology have begun to diminish its place in common society and eventually make it obsolete. At this point I have the background almost done. I was trying to go for that "busy" industrial look with a lot of grays and darks with hints of warm colors in certain areas. I think the gray may have overpowered it for the most part though. Any ideas on how to make the background more natural looking with acryllic paint? Should I be adding more detail to the background?

  1. I love the texture-- It looks very coal mine-y, I think. I really like the background, but I'm not sure what you're making the centerpiece, so I can't tell you if you should add more detail or not.

  2. Before starting background stuff, I would detail your focal point and then see what else is needed. I like the textures you got going.

  4. I personally think the background looks really good as is. But if you want it to be more blended you could add some water to blend it out.
