Not Sure Which Face
Lower Face
Lower Face Alt.
I am not sure which of these two I like better. I like the strong black of the second for abstract reasons, but the first may be more unified in terms of the illustration of the face. The red of the negative space seems to cut into the throat in the first one. I smoothed it out in the second and like it better.

Size of JPEG
Pink Bird
Pink Bird
Same birds, different jpeg sizes. I am trying to get the right size for these ArtRage images. They save larger in pixel size but not in kbs compared to the Disney's. Strange. I saved the second one as a smaller size, however, it ended up with a few more kbs.
Just tried the "click on the image" and found the second to work better.

More Stencil Fun
3456
Made the numbers small this time by blowing up the image on the screen. It is a strange program that doesn't change the size of the stencil. I am not sure if the number system on these latest works have meaning yet. I like numbers in a row. The numbers 1234 and 234 are sometimes the time I go to bed and notice the numbers on the clock --12:34 and 2:34. Otherwise, these number pieces seem to be landscapes until I add the numbers. The numbers label and take away some of the landscape feel.
(Later Note -- I have found that the stencil size can be changed with a right click and a diagonal drag.)

2345
2345
I figured out a few things on ArtRage tonight. I can make the stencils larger or smaller by using the zoom. In "2345" I made the numbers larger by using the magnifying glass feature to make the image smaller on the screen. I was also able to go off the edges, a problem I have had in earlier works when the curser would run up against the screen and follow the edge rather than keep going.

December Final
I posted this YouTube video because I needed to embed one for a test in my teaching with technology class. My friend LeeAnn thought it was funny, so I am leaving it here.

Finished a Painting
Blurring Metallic feature on ArtRage 2
Face
Face 2
Started this piece with a dark blue metallic line. I then used the pallet knife to smear it around. It looked a bit like a face, hence, the hair. My daughter says it looks like a porcupine. I find the face to be soft and non-threatening with the light background, and the second face is more intense and a tad angry. The faces are the same; the backgrounds are the only difference.
I need to get around to changing the name of this blog. I need to get art onto my my website while I am at it.
I did this Christmas card image a few days ago. It has many layers. Happy Holidays.

Square on ArtRage 2
Square
I have been playing around with the pallet knife over the spray gun. It makes it look dry. A very different effect from the pallet knife over the oil paint. The white haze effect came from the eraser at its largest setting.
A bit of a Christmas feel to this one. The reds in the center are like a rich, velvet throw. This one is all about textures.

New ArtRage 2 Digital Art
Before Spotted Pony
Spotted Pony
Here are a couple of my digital works from last night. I am still getting the kinks out of working with ArtRage, but I am having fun. These two are less decorative than many of my DMAS works --less about color harmony and becoming more about content. I don't really know where my digital art is going, but I plan to do what feels right. It has been some time since I thought about content intellectually. Teaching has been on the front burner for the last few years. However, there are usually two burners on the front of a stove, sometimes more.
