This image is based on a photo of a popular view across the Li River in the Guilin area of China. The region has the most amazing limestone pyrammidal peaks and lush vegetation. Although this is quite close to the original photo reference, I've altered the composition to a 2.35:1 ratio with the vanishing point placed on the right-side third and been pretty liberal with the mountain peaks in the background. The concept sketches were done in Corel Painter using mainly pencils, markers and chalks. The final image was completed in Photoshop using some rock texture reference from various photos. This is my first venture into digital painting.
