Ipad Jesus Icon

This particular ipad painting painting was inspired by icon painting. I choose an icon image from the internet to use as a guide. I trace the main outlines of the face from this image and then proceeded to paint in the colors in my own fashion. Bold dark lines frame the face and break up the value areas. I used some of Procreate's texture brushes to give the back ground a wood grain quality. The second image was created by using Pic Grunger and some of its texture filters.
