virtual airbrush

One of my experiments with Corel Painter's airbrush.


The doodle above is part of The Flying Fire Hydrant collection: a gift for Rand, in appreciation for his willingness to be subjected to (and even genuine interest in) my often feeble attempts at learning to master Corel Painter. It's all lot of fun playing around with virtual art materials...there's none of the hassle of having to buy a real airbrush and paints, for example, plus no clean-up afterward. :-) I'll be posting more of my experiments in Blatherings over time. Right now I'm learning about using oils. I suck at it, but hope to get better.

Had a good time with Michelle yesterday. Worked more on our story, but also just hung out at Fune and talked about all kinds of other stuff. Fun to compare notes on Kill Bill 2, which she liked better than the first one. I also showed her the photo of her I posted on Blatherings yesterday, partly to see that wonderful "I'm gonna kill you, Ohi" grimace, and pointed out that she hasn't really changed at all in 20 years.

Back to writing now. Article due today!
