Hi friends!
It was another artwork to art contest on Steemit. The theme called "Bold"
When I read the name of the topic I imagined the ropewalker going blindfolded over the precipice...
This requires extraordinary courage, is not it?

Sketch

I worked in Krita in this time.
I didn't know this graphics program very well, so every step of the drawing was an experiment for me.
I wanted to choose a color palette with with anxious mood.

Creating new color palette

I started my work with background

I draw the mountains in the background
I can't say which brushes I used, because the program, as I said, was unfamiliar to me.

I determine the direction of lighting - to the left and start to work with character

Here I wanted to divide the distant mountains into two plans to enhance the depth of space, the closer to the viewer I detail more.

Detalization a character.
I wanted him to attract all the attention, so I made him a bright color for his clothes.

Likewise, I accentuate the foreground - the part of the rope that extends beyond the edge of the frame.

And in the last step, I added more fog over the abyss to enhance the feeling that there is an abyss under the feet of the daredevil

Finally color correction in Photoshop

It was not an easy job, but I did it! I hope you'll like it too Have a nice and creative day! Regards
