Happy Birthday one day project

 

    For this project I toyed around with a few different ideas, all with different tones but in the end I chose to go with a more abstract idea that the moon ages with its different phases. The main reason I went with this idea is because these phases of the moon although people refer to them as crescent, half, and full, in certain astrological societies/beliefs they are called mother, maiden and crone, leaning into the idea that the moon as it goes through these different phases, actually ages. I myself was rather happy with the outcome of this project, as it was my first big shot at digital art and through this project I learned how to use different brushes to create unique textures and tones. I would say that this was one of the more interesting routes I could've approached this project with, and isn't so on the nose.
