Look closely at this here Ghibli grass👀 1. varied hues: not all same shade of green 2. patches of detail: contrast between empty space, & detail 3. subtle vertical brush strokes to indicate forms The idea is to give *impression* of grass, not model each blade like Pixar.

Ideally we start with a pencil layout to figure out shapes and geometry, at painting stage it's good to be able to just paint. This way you also generate 2 nice pieces of art for a portfolio.

Here's an example of brickwork, the painter hasn't tried to paint bricks but instead made some light indications in limited areas. The feeling of brick comes mostly from blocks of color variation. The contrast /detail comes from the shadows and occlusion created by the fixtures,

Closer to camera: can you see how each surface is mostly flat and the definition comes from the occlusion- the dark spaces light doesn't reach? It's a balance of negative space (surface) and detail (edges).

Observe this building wall- it's mostly a flat wash with all the detail focused on and around the door and window frames and in the signage. So if we get the fixtures right the wall takes care of itself.

Painting by Laura Knight, look how many different types of blue there are in the sea. In photoshop we have to force this kind of variation a bit more than with real paint. Shadows aren't all one hue, nor is the grass etc. But it's not all out multi-color, needs a light touch.

Painting tip: In general tree foliage is much darker than grass. Trees particularly in mid summer are pretty dark against grasses, gives a nice tonal contrast. This is true irl and can be exaggerated in painting to good effect like this one. Painting by Richard Thorn-

Regard this here table. The surface is negative space with very low-contrast detail, just subtle variations in tone and hue and a couple of touches. The extremities and the vernacular carving provide the detail, in this case with occlusion and edge lighting.

Not the best painting but it's good b'cos it shows off the concept I've been talking about: walls are a flat base wash with the definition painted after with darker, restrained details (not everywhere, not uniform) that provide just enough detail or definition to make it read as

Again the wall is negative space, the windows and other fixtures are detail. Color and tonal variation can indicate texture of materials while keeping the space negative. The idea of balance between negative space and detail applies within shapes as well as without.

Good reference for painting stark light, hitting surfaces directly not general undefined gradients/ overlays. Just have to work it out spatially beforehand. Also see the saturated buffer zone on the wall between light and dark, adds some warmth and richness.

General color palette of the movie is complementary red vs blue, sometimes the blue is more purple, sometimes the red is more pink but it's really warm and makes the location feel warm so works for the movie, it's very saturated as a result but I like it.

Painting light directly hitting surfaces without using gradients and fx tricks will just look painterly by default. Depends what style you're going for but light can have brush strokes like here and still feel like light. Not about accuracy/ photo-realism- it's a painting!

Trees have individual organic shapes with their own texture, grass has subtle texture too which contrasts against negative space of the wall and floor. There's a lot of focus blurring in the movie which is a I think it's unnecessary and often distracting even like here.

Painting and art direction are great overall in Aladdin, think it's aged very well compared to a lot of western animation from the period. It feels older than 92 in some ways, very influenced by Disney's past rather than what was around at the time I think.
