John I like this a lot. It reveals great possibilities
Good portrait. I assume it is called a portrait.
Thanks. It does have southwestern feeling.
Man, I like this one; very southwesternly.
Profile Information
- What version of Studio Artist do you own?
- 3.5.2
- How do you use Studio Artist?
- I use it to emulate old print techniques (eg.chromolithography) and to extend the boundaries of photography. My use of SA as a visual storytelling process remains to be explored as well.
- About Me:
- My profession is graphics design and hand lettering. Initially I worked for Columbia Records during the Golden Age of Records. I have also had extensive experience in book design. Most of my work now is with magazine design. I also have taught design and typography for the past 20 years at the (formerly at School of Visual Arts & presently at the New York City College of Technology.)
The past few years I am much more interested in art/design for personal expression than in my commercial work. I have been taking drawing courses (academic style), sculpture, and Tibetan Thangka Painting with the idea of combining handwork with computer generated art.

- Hi Paul,
inside your tip relating to the outline discussion you mention that it is possible to erase any line. I do not see any erase function. How does it work?
Thanks in advance, Frank

You're right about the strength of a photo, and altering it too much is dangerous in my book as well. Your latest "Frumpkin" is solid proof--it so strong to begin with. but the additional texture makes it a standout. I love it!
As for teaching, I still do, but online for the largest community college on the island, ncc, so I am in front of the screen 12-14 hrs a day. In between correcting work, I dabble--it's my much needed outlet. However, I feel way out of the league with those who post about sophisticated processes that I cannot get my brain around. This software is wonderful, but has such a high learning curve, that I find myself "stabbing" away hap hazardly most of the time and hoping for happy accidents to happen. When they do, I am pleased, but then cannot duplicate it because I can't remember what I did in the first place. I may be wrong, and may not have explored it enough, but the tutorials could use some updating and additional "simple" explanations for those of us who are not technically inclined. Seems like some processes have been ignored or not treated as fully as they could be. I have reviewed many tutorials repeatedly, but constantly have to come back to check something out. Usually end up having to work both in PS and SA to get something halfway decent. Cheers,Dee

- Hi Paul,
Thanks for your kind words. Yes, I create based on photos taken here or in Spain: mostly flowers, nature in general, or events. Your Coney Island Project is unique, so keep it rolling!
