Digital Artistry - St. Louis Old Courthouse

I'm trying my hand with Manga Studio, part of the Clip Paint Studio. I started by experimenting with a freehand sketch of the Old Courthouse of St. Louis which was statically framed by the construction of the Gateway Arch. It is one of the most photographed landmarks in the city.

I started with a freehand sketch and several layers of soft colors over it to emulate watercolor media. I want folks to know that the fellow in front of the Courthouse is a statue and it is not a selfie of me standing in front of the building.

Thanks, UTMike. Strangely enough, I've done many renovation projects in the Gateway Arch and I've been in places in the arch that folks would not know existed. Designing and installing ductwork and piping to fit within the confines of the arch was always quite challenging. In all those years I have never been inside it as a visitor.

Very nice, sippy. I do miss your macros, though.

Thanks, Kpmac. We had a swarm of flying ants the other night and I collected a few for a focus stacking session.
