Today I wanted to share a video with you from this years Adobe MAX.

 .

The video is actually the screen and voice recording from one of Aaron Blaise’s sessions, where he starts with a brief history and then moves on to show the process he goes through to create one of his creature characters.

.

I’ve said it before but I cannot stress enough how much we as photographers and retouchers can learn from a true, traditional artist like Aaron; composition, lighting, colouring and so it goes on…

.

So, get yourself comfortable, press Play, sit back and watch as Aaron brings a blank Photoshop document to life with colour, light, composition and a bloomin’ great use of texture…
