cathleenmcallister asked: Celine! your work is beautiful! I really love that interior for Phantom of the Opera. What was your process for that?

celine-kim:

Sorry I got back to this question so late, I wanted to take my time to organize the process.

image

1.RESEARCH: I actually have tons of more images but these are my main references. I tried to grasp the design and the lighting here.

image

2. SUPER ROUGH SKETCH: Just to give me an idea of the design and the general placement of the furniture.

image

3. Rough Lighting: This is never a final but here I’m trying to find the right path to visualize the lighting+mood I had in mind.

image

4. Clean up sketch: Tighten the shapes and details so that I don’t lose them when I paint.

image

5. The all-mighty crit time: After a crit+suggestions I went through some major construction change to give the room more interesting shape.

image

6. Re-sketch: I added some other furniture thinking more about the eye-path and variety of size and shape.

7. Finishing~: Yup. Basically detailing and photobashing, really trying to aim for the mood I want for this environment!

So…this is pretty it hope I answered it well!
