Frozen Haven — Guiding the Eye with Color and Composition

In this tutorial, I paint Frozen Haven from start to finish, focusing on composition and how to guide the viewer’s eye using color and value.

I talk through my decisions as I work, explaining why I place shapes where I do, how I control contrast, and how color relationships help lead attention through the image.

This is a full, uninterrupted process with voice-over, including adjustments and course corrections along the way.

Includes:

• Full process video with voice-over
• Layered PSD file
• Custom brushes used in the painting
