Mooooaaar Cubes

This time around I painted a weathered stone and some marble. Just in case you're new, these are class demos from a digital painting class that I teach. Here's some of the process.

The marble was an interesting puzzle to solve. I like to try to make my demos different from previous ones because the students have access to all my previous demos and all the layer structure is still there so they can pretty clearly break down how things were made.

It gets a bit redundant if I choose a lot of the same looks. So I've already done a typical looking marble, if you scroll back far enough I'm sure I posted that at some point. But this time I wanted to do this really colorful marble that had all these sedimentary looking layers in it.

I first painted it flat then distorted the planes onto a cube and continued the painting from there.

I also used the liquefy tool in Photoshop to help get the layered look.

That's about it for rock week. I think next week is wood. Thanks for looking peeps!
