Trying to hold onto paint
Still at the beginning of the era of being required to deliver artwork in layers. Here is my earliest attempt at trying to figure out how to deliver a layered piece of art and have a finished painting at the end.
The Art Director would have naturally been pleased to receive every discrete element on its own layer. Digitally, this is possible. But after talking a little with him and figuring what he really needed, I understood that he basically wanted the figure, the mid-ground and the background separable. That still seemed doable within the realms of traditional painting, at least in this instance.
