Then I had a look through some of your 20 blog posts labeled 'digital image' and found some delightful experiments and variations, where you've begun with your own artwork. Now I'm intriqued about how exactly you start from scratch on a computer tablet to produce one of your fantastic 'implied' landscapes...? Perhaps I'll find the answer if I delve deeper into those 20 posts...Charlene Brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13845504349975059383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16927229.post-85122305884201388562009-03-20T23:10:00.000+00:002009-03-20T23:10:00.000+00:00thanks Cath :>) and yes it isthanks Cath :>) and yes it isvivienhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16820836660470146799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16927229.post-61616421795753165302009-03-20T08:00:00.000+00:002009-03-20T08:00:00.000+00:00These are glorious; the colours are so saturated a...These are glorious; the colours are so saturated and lovely.

I've moved from there into 'conventional' printmaking which I love, but still enjoy the feel of the digital image. <BR/><BR/>So far I have refused to do limited editions, because in practice it made no difference to the sale price. I'm still outside the gallery circuit, so selling direct. They don't go on Etsy either. <BR/><BR/>www.panchromatica.etsy.comianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07850994383482463103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16927229.post-85344016172259265852009-03-17T23:21:00.000+00:002009-03-17T23:21:00.000+00:00I thought you'd be pleased Shirley!Thanks Anit...I thought you'd be pleased Shirley!<BR/><BR/>Thanks Anita - that's what I love that edge between reality and abstract :>) <BR/><BR/>I need a tablet ... maybe, I just work with the mouse and haven't got around to getting one.
