    This is weird, Richie. Looks more like a painting, than ones and zeros.
    Speaking of which, I’ve finished my version of your ‘cold comfort’ – took me about 4 hours, and not the 2hours, I’d anticipated. Had a bit of trouble painting the lambs – animals! – I’m much more comfortable with ships!

  • richiedean replied

    Well, I said before that if you want to paint digitally, you cant get better than Corel Painter X, which is what I’ve used here …......
    Looking forward to seeing your rendition of ’ Cold Comfort ’ ......

    I totally LOVE this!!!!

  • richiedean replied

    It could be that you lean towards impressionism then Judylee, thankyou very much …... :))

  • Judylee

    Judylee

    I absolutely do lean towards impressionism but not only that, this work is full of textures (which I absolutely adore). I just want to run my fingers over it to feel the slick, smooth wavy textures this appears to posses.

    Again, I DO love it and I’ll be watching you very closely to see what brilliant work you post next :))
