Spectrum Shiva

Just finished an interesting assignment;  a play-mat for a collectible card game company, Card Advantage.  It allowed me to try an experiment.  I've been meaning to try to mix how I use traditional B&W  line art with digital colour for a while and the content of this image really allowed for that.

Line art:  pen and ink on 11x17" 2-ply Bristol paper.


Finished illustration: digital colour, 14x24" @450dpi 


I'm trying to remove some self-imposed limits with this.  To no longer approach a piece thinking it has to look like digital colour under a black ink drawing or that a painting has to avoid line contours or textures.
