Beautiful colors indeed.

Made with acrylics and pencil.

Here is a photo that shows my colors and tools (from left to right): oil chalk pencils (Polychromos), various pens, watercolors, acrylics.

Beautiful.....

 

Love the shallow depth of field, the sharpness and the colors.

I used to airbrush a lot with a real airbrush, not a digital tool in a program. Airbrush isn't considered to be 'real art' by painters that work with hairy brushes and digital drawing and painting they say is even worse. But I like the parametric options of AD and AP and the countless undo functionality that allow to come closer to the images in my head. The Serif programs have the features that I require to do just that. Even if it takes a bucket of time.

I too used to be a bit of an airbrush guy. Years ago now. I find designer is the closest thing to that right now but with so many more options to experiment than a real airbrush, without the mess and all of that masking.
