If you could accept the present

It's been a busy summer without internet

    

Here is an example of a quiet moment.

I'm entering an exciting time full of transition.
 I hope I can keep up with the excitement, and still find time to perfect my talent. 

One thing I've learned is thinking about it isn't the same as doing it.

Spending my time on Flickr

Julia Kay's Portrait Party

There is something fun going on. A women named Julia has just finished a 3 year commentment to do a portrait a day. To celebrate she is throwing a portrait party on flicker. I was lucky enough to happen apon the site at the perfect time. I asked for acceptance, and I was in. Here is the first portrait I finished.

What happens when you spend the time.

You are paid with a return of measure and creation.

Digital fingerpainting

I learned the term for this new form of art recently. It is simply called digital fingerpainting.

Done on Graffiti for Facebook

This is the picture I used as reference

And this is the finished graffiti

Grafitti

Another one done while stuck  home.

Here are 4 versions of an image that started in facebook grafitti.

Than I took it to Paint.NET and first inked it, than turned it into a  painted image.

                                                                        

        Here it is  touched up on  my favorite program Art Rage 2.5.

I really like grafitti for it's looseness. It's too easy to over work a painting.

With experience you learn when to quit.

Art Rage digital painting

This is a drawing I did on a great download called Art Rage. A version 3 is in the works. I never thought I would enjoy painting graphically but with this program you can almost smell the paint.

Drawing

Well I'm back, it's that time of year again. I've been stuck close to home with a sick child, it's given me time to practice my drawing skills.

I found this great app. from facebook called "graffiti" that lets you embed on your blog. I will do this as soon as I figure it out. Help!

The more I explore the possibilities of the cyber world the more it seems like magic.

Will you be my friend?

Have you noticed the best designs have a familiar quality? Is it the symmetry or placement of the elements?

Here are some examples of whimsical kitchenware design. It occurred to me these old designs which look like faces would attract the women using them.

Was this planned by the designers? Does the subliminal placement of facial features stimulate our attraction to the design? Remember the movie "The Brave Little Toaster".

I loved that movie.

Goodmorning

I'm not always prepared with camera in hand at 5 o'clock in the morning. But on this particular morning the crows rudely woke me up by cawing loudly and repeatedly. This went on long enough that I thought of closing the window. As this thought went through my groggy mind I heard the first and second warning blast, leaping out of bed I grabbed my camera.
The ship continued signaling while making it's otherwise serene way to port. The only good coming from this shocking awakening was the story to be told and this video.

As I tell the story I'm learning of others with there own tales to tell.

Going thru my old pictures

What is this bug?
