Libera digital painting - Joshua Madine

Time-lapse portrait of Libera's Josh Madine! I'm warming up to my screen capture software. Hopefully soon I will be able to produce higher-quality videos without all the size problems and moving windows!

This portrait is embarrassing. I struggled a lot with the line work this time, so it gets pretty tedious in places, and of course I still cannot do subjects like Joshua Madine justice. It took about 3.5 hours to do, so it's longer--my Windows Movie Maker apparently can't handle anything past 5x speed. Finally, I draw by trial and error; please forgive how recursive my drawing process is. I'm practicing to fix that.

Directed by Robert Prizeman, Libera is a non-profit boy band that has enjoyed great success all over the world, from their London hometown to Japan, Korea, and the United States. Their beautiful vocals and intricate harmonies have propelled them to their well-deserved chart-topping fame.

The songs playing in this video are "How Can I Keep From Singing" from the album "Eternal - The Best of Libera" and "I Am The Day" from "Angel Voices - Libera in Concert." Joshua Madine does the solos in both. You can purchase Libera's music from their official site:

This is really good! I just don't understand how you do it! lol I'm just going to have to stick to a pencil and paper. :P

[Furorua]

Thanks so much! I know you could do it if you had the tools available, just don't give up drawing; it would be a crime to waste your talents!

[velvetolio]

This is so lovely, i love how the songs are fitting in with the video. wonderful painting, you should be proud of yourself :)

[Furorua]

Aw, thank you so much! I always have trouble getting the songs to fit; it's reassuring to know that they work with the video for you!

[repro99]

as with many artists they look at other work and think it is better than their own, even when its not, you are truly an amazing artist all the comments prove this, stop being critical of your own work,

i really look forward to seeing more of it, you have a fantastic talent,

thank you for sharing your work with the res of us

[Furorua]

Wow--what a generous thing to say! Thank you so much, I really can't tell you what this comment means to me. I maintain art only as a hobby because I'm very self-conscious about it, and I don't think I deserve your compliments, but you have no idea how much I appreciate them.  You totally made my day. Thank you.

[DwnWilliamHughes]

An incredible talent you have. Thank you so much for the time you spent on this and for sharing it with us all. Unlike the beauty of Josh's treble voice and his beautiful young face your talent will remain. I have subscribed.

Wow, this is great, I only wish I could have printed it. I hope you have sent this to Josh even if only the link. This looks a little like Corel, is it? Josh always seems to have a smile on his face and while he may or maynot be the best vocialist it's his smile that gets me everytime. Best of luck with your digital painting.
