Girl and Guy Reading

I love learning new things- and working with Photoshop is one of those things that I am compelled to learning right now. My goal in this little painting was to 1) have a look and feel form a 50's advertisement and, 2) to make my photoshop paint look like "real" paint.

Here I am giving the illusion of watercolor for hair and acrylic paint for skin and ribbon. How do you think I did? I am telling you, this is pretty fun stuff! The best part is, I know I can only get better!

So, I never EVER leave a comment on my blog- however I have decided to repent! So here we go... This is a image that I did at work today in Photoshop- and as you know I normally work with flat color and line, I decided to do something different today and use my brain just a little more. The result was this. And I was pretty proud of it; since I hardly ever work this way- and even if that were not the case- I think also I am aloud to be proud of my work. Too many artists are too hard on themselves!

This will be something (along with comments) you will see more of.

Until then, have a happy day!
