    Welcome to Stop & Post February 2013

    Take a minute to stop whatever you´ve been working and post your progress here.
    Finished pieces or works in progress all are welcome. If it's done in Xara we would like to see it.

    Happy posting!

    This is an experimental stereogram. I am trying to vary the depth of field as would happen in real life with objects farther away being lighter, less saturated, and less sharp.

    Also the transparency of the water revealing the two fish. I am rather pleased with how this effect has turned out.

    I just completed 50 new images (in the last month and a half) for our Japanese publisher. Our new editor will select maybe up to 20 of my new images along with the same number from my partner Gene. It's a lot of work but we always have extra images for the next book.

    You should be pleased Gary, that's a fascinating stereogram. So much to look at. I like the water flow into the pond.

    Very nice, especially the row of fountains and the clear water!

    I had no trouble focusing on this one either. I get a kick out of the jumping fish.

    Never give up. You will never fail, but you may find a lot of ways that don't work.

    I've started work on a new stained glass piece. As you can see I'm still working on the line work that will become the caming. I started by drawing the line work over top of a picture of a butterfly and I simplified the pattern as I went. The next step from here will be to go over the linework and check the areas where lines join for overlapping ends. Then I'll convert the lines to shape and erase uneeded parts of the circle beneath the wings.

    I have been messing around with this. I took one of Gare's spheres and had some fun with it. Good or bad I decided to post it.

    Here are a couple of pics that I did recently. I was trying out a "no outline" style just for fun.
