Another piece that started out as a speedpaint but I ended up devoting a bit more time to polishing. For any wondering, all the work for the speedpaints is done in photoshop. I do not lay out a rough sketch before starting to paint, I just paint and let the ideas flow in their own direction. I never knew how liberating a feeling that could be as I always planned my paintings before, well, painting them. But this way I start with a single color and just go paint slap happy until I start reading something in the paint strokes.
