Very nice.

Side note: how did you get digital images of your paintings? Whenever I try to take a picture and put it on my computer, the picture of my painting never turns out looking good and there is always some glare.

thanks for sharing pappy!

I like the motion of KID CHARLAMAGNE, it just for some reason makes a little more sense to me. ???

Digital cameras are a bitch because they try to make them idiot-proof. The best thing to do is to spend a lot of money and get a digital SLR that has full manual controls (like a focus ring), and shoot indoors on a tripod with two professional lights. However, if you're using a cheap, worthless piece of crap, like me, then I would suggest turning off the flash and taking the paintings out doors and shoot them in the shade on a sunny day.

In the old days of film, I used to have two professional halogen lights on either side of the painting with polarizing film, and then shoot long exposure on a tripod with tungsten-balanced ektachrome and a plorarizing filter. That kind of setup will eliminate almost any glare or reflection no matter whether under glass or varnished with high-gloss.

Sadly, I don't have that equipment any more, and my digital camera is a cheap piece of crap. I keep promising myself that I'll buy a decent camera some day...

Speaking of black-and-white. It's amazing how "polarizing" black-and-white can be... :wink:

Thanks! I just brought back a car load of art supplies on my last road trip, so I hope to have a productive summer.

hey paps!

been quite busy, actually ... got a new job doing digital color separation for an entertainment apparel company ... it's a ton of work and intensely detail-oriented -- but most of all, it's a pretty 'frickin rad job, if I do say so myself ...

your work is indispensable ... every time i take a look your art has gotten even more excellent ... stupendicularoso, even!  :shocked: :wink:

keep on keeping on ... or you'll be unkept!  :cool:

Some of these are fascinating,

HB,

Glad to hear you gots da rippin' job! :laugh:

I'm watching "Lust for Life" right now -- the film about Vincent Van Gogh, based on the Irving Stone novel -- and Kirk Douglas just shot himself... :frown:

Speaking of old movies: "Night of the Iguana" is going to be on TCM this monday at 7:00pm. Cool Beans! :cool:

Morrowind,

I know what you mean. I was out of town for a week, and I've been having to write some programming this past week, and all I really want to do is get back into the studio and paint. Oh, well... I'll just keep my nose to the grindstone and eventually I'll be liberated to do what I really want to do again...

I've got six paintings in the works right now, and I really, really, want to get back to work on them... All things in time, I guess...

It's all about patience...
