This painting was done back in 2005 with a mouse. Yep, I used a mouse to paint it, but the base sketch was drawn on a real paper and then scanned in. It wasn’t easy, and I’ve got an impression that digital painting is the worst way of making art, but still, it was an interesting challenge. Later on, I discovered pen displays, but it was much, much later.
The original sketch was done on real paper and can be seen above. I added an antique paper texture to make it look less bland 😺
