Another Art-Rageous attempt

Found this a while back, and couldn't see doing the woven ornaments hanging from her wrist in Xara, thought I'd give this a try.

The girl is 100% painting, I brought back just a teensy bit of the texture of the original .jpeg in the background and the skirt as her skirt is like made of burlap.

Very Nice Sally...

So... when you going to start framing these and selling em?

I just started with ArtRage, I suppose when I think I am professional enough.

I have Painter, but have never really gotten into it, I got this program as it looked like fun and it would be relaxing. I really don't think there is much I could do with Painter that I also couldn't do with this one except automated painting.

Besides, then I have to take time out of painting and make my website and I have done too many sites, find web design is not my forte. I can do it, just rather do something else.

I guess I am lazy.

I automated mine... Takes all of about 5 minutes to rebuilt/update the site. Just have to add the sepcifics for the latest pics to the database... and then press build...

the only problem with sites like this are changing the format... Then you have to rebuild all the code that creates the page.
