I’ve been working on this digital piece for the past 3 weeks or so on the iArtbook app. It’s been challenging and time-consuming but it was worth it to make it look good. It’s inspired by my curiosity and fascination for human anatomy and space. Yes, those are human hearts on the moon, lol.
Key points in the process:
I did the background first by using the bucket tool
Layer 1: I selected other colors, selected the acrylic brush, and blurred them with the lightest color to blend and soften them
Layer 2: I selected more colors, went under the Spray category, and selected the particles
Layer 3: I used the shapes tool to make a circle and went under Textures and selected Cracks in a lighter color
Layer 4: I went under the Artistic and selected the Dry acrylic brush, used the oil blending brush to slightly blend the dark and light colors, and blurred the blend line with the lighter color to create the craters
Layer 5: I selected Smooth ink and did a random shape, used the oil blending brush in a lighter pink, and blurred it with the red
Layer 6: I selected Smooth ink and made a rough shape of a heart then made the fatty part with white and yellow, and used the oil blending brush to blend the darker red and blurred it with the lighter red. I re-selected the Smooth ink to make the veins, changed the color to white for highlights in the blood and on the heart, and slightly blurred the highlights
