I am so very pleased to meet you. I love the way you realize that you can paint straight up in photoshop or whatever digital program you choose.. you are refreshing and come from a background of painting.. I have never painted and cannot do what you do by straight painting but I use photos first and then use it as abackgound start.. Your work is so amazing I cannot tell the difference.. thank you for coming by my site and watching me.. cause I will most assurededly be watching you.. Your amazing.
