Hello, and welcome to the daily challenge contest! The rules are simple: create a piece of artwork using Krita that relates to the day’s theme, and post them on the respective thread.
We encourage you to explore new ways of improving your workflow, so you can leverage many of Krita’s abilities to your advantage!
If you miss a day, that’s alright! You can always post artwork for previous days (as long as they’re on the correct thread), or just continue on and keep painting!
This thread is for days 1 through 10, with the following themes:
Day 1 - Boldness Day 2 - Forgery Day 3 - Reflection Day 4 - Frame Day 5 - Light Day 6 - Connection Day 7 - Speed Day 8 - Spelunking Day 9 - Smooth Day 10 - Reveal
Wanted to test out how selections can increased the textured feel. It turned out quite a lot different than what I imagined, but then again, they all do
This one had a bit more of symbolism. I wanted to portray the feeling of seeing your better self in your reflection, but your personal demons hold you down. Maybe a bit on the nose, but overall I’m happy with how it turned out, hope you like it too!
It’s a krasnoludek - which is how we in Polish call fantasy characters, looking like little dwarfs, they can be translated as elves sometimes. The name means “red little people” and the redness is about their pointed hats. They were supposed to help in the house (cleaning etc.) if people in the house left a bit of milk in a bowl etc. In my primary school there was this huge, huge book with “facts” about those creatures, including very detailed height measurements, how long the pregnancy lasts etc.
(They are not supposed to paint fake money… but I guess this girl got into an inappropriate company She’s terrified because all of her efforts got destroyed because of one faulty brush move).
I wanted something a bit different but I thought that it’s better to make a sketch than nothing
It’s interesting because we have something similar in German, the Heinzelmännchen. They helped people during the night when everyone was asleep, but there was one woman who desperately wanted to see them, so she scattered peas on the floor so that the Heinzelmännchen would slip and fall, and she got to see them but the Heinzelmännchen were so angry that they left and never helped anyone ever again.
Nice work!
