For my first posting of my blog I will show 2 of my loves, one doing digital painting on the computer and also doing real/true painting in acrylics. The snow scene was painted in Photoshop and the sunflowers were painted on a canvas board using acrylics.
For now, I will use this as a place to show my work in PSing and doing a study on Masking & Compositing from a book by Katrin Eismann in conjuction with a group of ladies from "Hello World. It is a fun place where we all enjoy discussions in painting, photoshopping, photography, eating and exercise....or whatever comes to mind.
