Title: The Change Of Melody
Name: Chenyu Hsieh
Country: Taiwan
Software: Painter, Photoshop

Hi everyone,

Here is my first post - The Change of Melody.
It was from my old sketch in watercolor. I scanned it and finished it digitally.

- original size 6000*4800 pixels
- painted in Painter & color correction in Photoshop

The character was mostly inspired by "mermaid" and "Feitian"(flying Godness). People in East believe that "mermaid" has a divine power to change the weather. And "Feitian" is said to be a goddess of cloud, water, and music in Indian mythology. To me, there is some kind of relationship between these two mythical characters. I tried to blend those 2 "images" together and came up with this work. Hope you like it. All C&C are welcome!

Thanks for the feedback. Instead of smooth everything out in this work, I tried to keep some natural strokes to catch "the moment". I experiment both warm and cool colors to pop-up and push back certain areas in the painting. Hope you like it!
