You are here







Random Quote

Who wants to become a writer? And why? Because it's the answer to everything. To 'Why am I here?' To uselessness. It's the streaming reason for living. To note, to pin down, to build up, to create, to be astonished at nothing, to cherish the oddities, to let nothing go down the drain, to make something, to make a great flower out of life, even if it's a cactus.
-- Enid Bagnold

Maine Shore (Watercolor)

 

I'm about halfway done. Maybe less. But I hate my scanner. It darkens part of the picture.

When at the Art Institute in Chicago I was reminded how only the originals have the right colors. I'm sure your original is beautiful (although I think the digital version looks great so far!)

Do you have some editing software that can tweak the colors for you? I use GIMP to get it to be closer to the original.

Nice work, BTW. Glad to see you at it again. : )

Thanks everyone :)

I've been shopping more expensive scanners and I'm thinking that I'll get a better one in September. It's just too much for my HP scanner.

Kris, I'll check out GIMP... thanks!
