COMPUTER ART

A simple project I completed to try out painting on the computer.

A family member suggested I try painting as a hobby. Well painting with a brush in mouth is possible but I thought not for me. I decided I wanted full control over my painting environment. What better place than my computer. Easy to mix colours, save paintings and no dry brushes or spilt water.

Not a great natural artist. I wasn't before my accident so why should I be now !
I thought I'd try a paint by numbers.

First scan the line picture, then the paint pots to create a matching computer colour palette. The results are below, see what you think.

Straight forward Paint by numbers
Digital Textures

The second picture 'Digital Textures' seemed a natural progression for a piece of computer artwork.
Try doing that on paper!

All work done on an Apple Macintosh using Adobe PhotoShop, with the headstart system.
