Hello October! 🖤🍂
How are you all doing? I’m so excited it’s fall! Lately, I’ve been really loving the foggy and rainy weather since it helps set the mood for moody fall-themed paintings! 🌧️
Here’s my first entry for Witchtober! I still don’t have a title for this yet! I really want to try something a little different since I feel like I’ve been doing a lot of portrait paintings and not enough paintings in horizontal/landscape format.
I also want to experiment using darker and muted colours for this month! 🍂
I ordered the September rewards (Celestial Library + Fall Bakery) and it said they should arrive by October 14th! I’m hoping it arrives earlier! 🖤
I’m going to be in Quebec tomorrow to celebrate the long weekend + Thanksgiving! So I’ll be back in time to mail the rewards and start a new painting next week :)
Thank you all so much for your support! It really means the world to me!! 🥰
Love,
Maxine

Hey Laura! For the foggy effect, I use a large pale blue airbrush (Photoshop default brush) or you can use any brush as long as it's soft/airbrush looking and paint straight across the horizon. I lower the opacity to 10-20% percent. Using the same brush, I create another layer and add soft dabs near the sparkling lights, and set the layer to overlay. This extra glow will help illuminate the scene! I hope that helps :)
