Gossip: 10/12/07
One of my favorite photoblogs is the DailyParisPhoto run by Eric the "Friendly Parisian" who always has a beautiful and oft-times humorous view from his city.
His October 2nd photograph: "Girls Talk" shoes two older ladies in a heated conversation in the middle of beautiful Parc Monceau. They seem completely oblivious to their surroundings being so engrossed in their chatting.
The second thing that struck me was their shoes. They are wearing identical shoes! So taken by their shoes, I decided to focus on them for a quick sketch in Photoshop. To highlight the sameness of their shoes, I kept to a simplistic palette of whites, grays and flesh tones.
To keep the background from being too flat, I added some texture with a custom brush that had some jitter in its hue, tone and size. These programmable brushes are one of the best additions to Photoshop's toolset.
The feet and shoes I kept simple, using subtle gradients and only a handful of colors. The pen tool is perfect for jobs like these legs and shoes.
