Varian Bio

"Whether I'm right or whether I'm wrong,
Whether I find a place in this world or never belong,
I gotta be me, I've gotta be me!
What else can I be but what I am?
I want to live, not merely survive,
And I won't give up this dream
Of life that keeps me alive.
I gotta be me, I gotta be me!
The dream that I see makes me what I am."


My real homepage: www.varian.netBIOI've been making art since I was old enough to hold a crayon. For well over a third of a century, I explored many media (personally and professionally) and my favorites came to be color pencils (Prismacolor), acrylics, paper (folding, sculpting, papier mâché, origami), pencil/ink and yes, crayons too. With my first computer, I was immediately hooked on this new technological art medium and for over a decade, I worked exclusively digitally, gathering a wide arsenal of digital art tools.

Recently, I've made a return to paper, working on several altered books and collage projects. Mixed media still rules as I remain unaligned by tool/software, process or technique.

I don't post all my displayed images at R'osity. If you want to see more, please visit my site galleries:

Description


It's always a challenge and pleasure
to "upgrade" an older image. :)
The original was 750x525 with only two layers (background on one, the rest on the other).
The new version is 2000x1400 and about 20 layers.

- Gallery page of the final version. -

- The very final steps are documented in this 2D Graphics forum thread. -
(This thread also includes an actual size detail from the finished image.)

Wonderful remake! I also like to come back upon my old images and try to repair and do some touch-ups here and there, but u practically changed the image into something with a different feeling - definitely an excellent improvement of your previous image.

As always, great to see your steps. Love the outcome, he looks so much milder in expression, and your work on his hair is much to the better.
