I'm an amateur artist who began in 2006 to use my own photos and stock photos to create digital "paintings." I use Photoshop Elements, Painter, Fotosketcher, Dynamic Auto Painting, and Photoshop CS5.
I got started doing digital art when I joined the internet group "Digital Nuts." Each week we work on a challenge (not a competition) called The Nutcracker, then post our work in the Digital Nuts gallery to help each other learn.
Here in this gallery I have included the work I did on my own, plus some of my favorites from the Nutcracker challenges over the past 5 years. Enjoy!
