If you have not visited Judy's gallery lately, do yourself a favor. It's quite amazing.

She is truly an artist -- especially loved her Judy Garland portrait.

very, very cool! :)

Danny, i'm honoured that you should mention this here and I also thank you for your lovely comment at pbase. Yours too, Cj.
Craig, thanks so much!
All are invited to see my work!

Judy these are absolutely stunning! I personally liked Fred Astaire the best. Is this a sort of AHB technique?
Whatever it is, it's beautiful:grin:

Hi Jordan...The ahb tool is in photoshop.
What you saw in my gallery were all created using the corel painter ix.5software, and a wacom stylus and tablet.
Reference photos, which were mostly greyscale, were used, of course. Colors all handpicked. I have used absolutely NO plugins or filters. I'm glad you liked what you saw!
