Entry for Rhythmic Symphony, The Envaryan Chronicles: Book 1

(Cinder)
The last of the prophets
Jeremiah Cane
With eyes like glass cathedrals
And a voice like the rain

There's an ancient tower for seers
Made of sky and stone
But Cane lives on the edge of town
In a tent he calls a home

Jeremiah, won't you look into my eyes and tell me what the future holds
Jeremiah, won't you look into my life and tell me there's something more
'Cause something doesn't feel right
No, nothing feels right

Come my love and draw close
We've reached the fringe of town
The percussion of an angry crowd
All but drowned by a single sound
Though they curse, abhor and defy him
His melody waxes still
Like the fires in the woodlands
There's a purpose he must fulfill

The voice has been fulfilled
Now the deaf will have their way
I struggle to avert my eyes
But I cannot walk away
Fly, Jeremiah
Fly into the hills
Banished by the people he loves
Who would choose their blinders still

Ha! very carefully!

I put most of the color down as just a wash. Then I started a new layer with a one pixel brush at the top working consecutive layers of darker and lighter blades over the base color. I only made a few inches of this "texture" and then copied and modified and copied and modified until I had enough to cover the whole foreground. Then just erase the path and rocks, clean up the edges, and set the blending to overlay. After that I duplicated the wash layer on top of the grass texture, turned up the saturation a little, and set blending to color....

Of course that is ignoring all of the mistakes I made along the way. I've never really done grass before so it was a struggle. In truth there were many many more steps.

Hope that helps! Thanks for the fave!

I don't listen to what art critics say. I don't know anybody who needs a critic to find out what art is.
