Happy Monday Morning Steemers!

This is an original piece I created called Marshmallow Sunrise. Drawn on Krita with my Wacom Intuos Art 4 graphics tablet.

Below is my process from terrible rough lines to finished piece.

Just some rough lines of my idea,

Next some basic colour,

Now I remove my lines and start on the sun,

Using a few brushes that Krita has to offer and some blues, whites and oranges I started to form clouds,

I continued the cloud effect and then added some light rays on the sun,

Next I trimmed the cliff edge and started to add grass,

After a while of playing around with different shades and colours for the grass I ended up with this,

Onto the cliff face, I added some very rough detail lines to assist me in the finer detail,

Again after a while of plying around with shapes, lines, colours and sharpening, I added definition to the cliff face,

Next I get to work on the water, gradually adding detail over a few layers and then touching it up with the suns reflection,

After I finished the water I moved onto the tree. Using a customised rake brush in Krita, I went about giving the tree some texture and then added definition,

I then added more grass over the base of the tree to make it fit better,

For the tree top I used a customised pattern brush in Krita, with lots of shades of pink and red to create a leaf effect,

Now I add the shadow for the tree and then the lighting on the grass,

And for the last step, I duplicated my tree top layer, then moved and rotated it before erasing with the same brush I used to make the texture to form a wave of loose leaves,

So there is my process! what do you think?

Have a brilliant start to the week! and I hope this can brighten those Monday blues!
