I’m over at my friend Garfield’s and he’s taken out a game called Stare. On it are pictures of tiny paintings which one stares at for 20 seconds, than answers questions. It’s harder than it seems.

I only post Daily Art Thing when it’s A Photoshop Thing. To the detriment of many things in this world, I haven’t got a scanner. This is troublesome. HOWEVER!

When I decided I wanted to one day have work in the Vancouver Art Gallery I went down there and asked what I needed to do. The answer was that they plan shows three YEARS in advance and you needed to have a pretty good C.V. So the first step was to get an art [...]
I’m learning to paint in photoshop, and doing so by drawing my own lineart and then colouring it. If I could get ahold of a scanner. I have stacks of pictures and I need a scanner.
I’ve been mostly using Mark Sweeney’s excellent tutorials. As well as some resources in the forum Gutterzombie. I’ve gotten some [...]
