- Boy, what a departure. I've never done anything in this style before and
- may never again! It's frustrating to not have clean lines and more rigid
- shapes. It's more like an impressionist type painting. Maybe something that
- should be done in oils on canvas. I have to say that I'm surprised with the
- outcome of this one. (I've been told to quit being the critic, just the
- artist).
- The background image was done with DPaint, including the bricks, bag and
- bottle. The hand is mine, digitized with Digi-View and colorized in DPaint.
- I did that to get a natural pose. (Read as CHEATED). The postcard was done as
- a full interlace image in DPaint then sized down and put in perspective.
- Because of the limited 32 color palette, I later grabbed the postcard as a
- brush and imported it into Photon Paint and used the remap feature to put it
- back into it's correct colors. I did final touch-ups in Photon Paint.
- As I said before, this is a rarity in style for me and I don't know if I'll
- ever do anything like it again. If response is good, maybe.
- Hope you like it!
