Cover: Sylph - Watercolor

Description

An original watercolor for the cover box of Sylph: Project Miyaji (www.kickstarter.com/projects/e… ), an upcoming video game inspired by the old Silpheed titles. The art brief for this one was intense (having to be composed such that the one piece would work both as a box wraparound cover with exacting specs and a well-composed 18x24 print), and at times I felt like I was really pushing the limits of my current skillset, but both I and the client were very pleased with the outcome. :) At 18x24 paint size on 300# cold press, it is the largest single watercolor piece I've completed to date. I wanted an opacity to the space, but not to lose the brightness and gradient nature of the paint, which took many careful layers. No frisket or masking fluid was used in the painting of this piece!
