WCW240 2025

Photo Details

Poster: Holstein

Happy New Year to our community members. Kia gave us a challenge of painting fireworks. Sorry this is late. This is my second effort. I used masking fluid for this one. I also used a white charcoal pencil for the highlighting of the explosion. Come join us this week and show us your take on this technique.

Lovely firework scene. You got a lovely contrast with the dark sky. I got as far as printing a reference photo!!

What a beautiful night sky! I love how your curved horizon mimics the look of a fisheye lens. That explosive focal point really stands out. What a super card!

Spectacular. I really like this…like a bird’s eye view. I tried one and it was too wet so it became a Brusho BG. Now I will try it again.
