I love Grimshaw’s paintings, I mean not really from an artistic POV, they’d probably be considered pretty lousy by most art history scholars, but they just have so much ATMOSPHERE. Also, he was a Yorkshireman so THUMBS UP FOR THE WEST RIDING.
A long time ago an anon asked my thoughts about drawing backgrounds, so I finally got around to putting this together. It’s more prop-centric, but it still represents my philosophy to backgrounds.
I’ll try to do something more about drawing actual background spaces in the future! Please let me know what you think, if anything is unclear, or if you have suggestions for other tutorials you might find helpful!
