This acrylic painting was inspired by Mortis Ghost. This is a piece of artwork he did based on his game, OFF, which includes images of various locations throughout the story.
In my painting, I used a number of techniques.
After creating a dark blue background, I used a sponge to add some black and purple, creating an interesting texture.
When I added the pink buildings, I used a palette knife to apply the paint.
The edges of the buildings are distinguished by thick paint, which physically stands out from the rest of the painting. This is called impasto.
The white line across the top is meant to be a glaze, however, I mixed the paint and glazing medium in an incorrect proportion, resulting in it being less transparent than intended.
"Sgraffito" means "to scratch", which I used to then define the shape of the flowers.
Although I did manage to integrate quite a few painting techniques into my work, I feel as if the painting itself is too simple. One critical element of Mortis Ghost's art style that I missed was the use of black outlines. In the end, I did make an interesting tribute.
