Gradually, it takes on color, dimensionality, and the polished look of a digital masterpiece towards the other side. The style is close to an impressionist painting, a Van Gogh-like texture but incorporating elements unique to digital art, like vector shapes and vibrant color gradients. This amalgamation creates a bridge between traditional and modern art forms, exemplifying the progression from pencil to pixels.

Mark Laurence LaRiviere

Hi there! I'm an art director and graphic designer with a deep love for fine art drawing. For many years, I was an art director for top illustrated book publishers in New York City. Today, I find solace and inspiration drawing with a stylus on a digital tablet or putting an old-fashioned pencil to paper.
