1st Painter Post
Hi, been on this forum a long time but never got into Painter, though I have owned it a while. Didn't have much luck running it on a PC, lagged terribly. Recently got a MAC. Did this this morning.
Playing with impastos. Started out as photography. Separated the forground from the background with KnockOut and then blurred the background then started painting.
Thought you might enjoy my first attempts.

Re: 1st Painter Post
Lovely job as always Sally I also loved the rose you did with Art rage. Bought the program for myself all I need now is the artistry to use it.

Re: 1st Painter Post
Thanks, Norman, kind of you.
It doesn't matter if you are great or not. Draw because you love to do it, it is sufficient reward that you can achieve new skills every day, something to be please with one's self no matter what your age is. You have so many wonderful flowers in your garden, you could draw from observation too, though it is easier with a camera.
There's a forum too for ArtRAGE and the people are friendly, I've not yet particiapted, seems like a good group, however. Fewer Englishmen, ah, sigh. Can't have everything, I guess.

Re: 1st Painter Post
You are doing some nice stuff. Explore all you can with the tools and don't be afraid to draw on your own, this is life, you have to live it.

But, Sally you don't live in the Sunflower state of Kansas. We grow them wild here. The wife likes them and must have 15 planted in her garden. Good job painting. GT

Hi Sally, Love picture!!
I'm an Englishman and new to Painter.... just found this Painter forum.
I know this may seem a daft question to you, but what is Knockout?
Happy Painting
