digital painting

So, my painting is not quite the one I'd like it to be, but I definitely intend to continue working on it later. It took me a while to come up with an idea for this assignment, but while I doodled I came up with a little mini story (basically working off of what perspective the drawings were at). I wanted to do a double image, one at worm's eye pov and another at bird's eye. The girl in the foreground is meant to be the "pauper" looking up at a "princess," and it was meant to have a matching, opposite image.

I worked with 3 point perspective because I wanted to challenge myself and improve on perspective drawing. I sketched it on paper and scanned it in to photoshop for the painting process. I took it in a different direction in photoshop, using the selection tool to create masks to fill and play with. This lead to a much neater look than I was planning for. The original plan was to leave the sketch multiplied on a layer on top, but I liked the even more simplified look of the shapes without the drawing. Stil, I included a version with the original sketch.
