digi_img...tut3

   a really interesting tutorial from 'computer arts' magazine - i can now use liquid filters effectively & learnt a few tips with brushes... also some really subtle light/glow fx...
 i had finished last night but couldn't post as my brain had given up the ability to use blogger...

Digi_img...tutorial2

  a nice little tutorial from digital arts magazine... its taught me a couple of things - use light in harmonious tones throughout to create a sense of unity between random images, create groups in Ps to maintain order & i need to build a massive library of 'stock' - exciting summer of experimental 'art' (mess) for me...


also i think i'm on the right track as this 'thumbnail' does it no justice!

digi_img...tutorial1

 this next brief is 'digital imagery' so i'm going to basics on the research & we have to make a log of tutorials... i've waited for what seems like an age to do some of these.
 This 1 is a lighting fx, from the nice people at Digital arts magazine, i'm afraid i dont do stock imagery so it's from my own stock, & i pick n choose the bits i want to try & remember so it looks different from the magazine. Big thanks to Blatzer & Sunira for the brushes...




galactic swirls, clouds & glow... maybe alittle ott but i get its principals.

YayDrawinBoard...

 i had a good think about the next brief & it has to be my favourite so far... it also means i can research contemporary digital artist, i've spoken to some lovely ones today.
 it felt great to be able to draw without feeling guilty about the work i've digressed from....
i can't stop thinking about the 'title' given in the brief and how they are too linked to be separated...

1st thoughts "mood board" (?)
