was that song playing on the juke box? A Leonard Cohen classic?

As I continue my creative journey, what's next? It is always a temptation to try a quick fix to scratch the creative itch. Perhaps that is what I have done here. i drifted in to computer craphics again. I prefer to use the machine without input from scanners or cameras and create everything within the mchine as seen above.
One of the great advantages of the computer is the ease at which you can produce multiple images. The above is not finished. Other art-related things have taken time. I appeared at a local elemantary school for career day. Showing the kids my art and answering their questions was a lot of fun.

Studio listening matter:

• Marsha Ball
• Leo Kotke
• Pat Metheny

so this must be reality. But what

It's been a while since my last post. A lot going on. I have been trying to switch mediums. I'm changing from watercolors to acrylic. With acrylic I can paint over my mistakes. Paint application is a different process. In watercolors, the substrate you paint on makes all the difference. After all the difference in the moisture content between the brush and the paper is what makes the painting happen. Unless the acrylic is being used like watercolors the foregoing doesn't happen. The substrate is not that critical. The above piece is done on illustration board. It makes it possible to produce very sharp detail if desired. My biggest problem with the paint is to get the correct consistency so that he paint will flow. Using extender would solve this problem. But I like the quick drying paint.
