| | So many great entries... Feel it's going to be really hard for Ali's Mom!!
Experimenting again with watercolors, using both Painter 8 & Photoshop's Pattern brushes & then many, many hours of blending different version together. Ended up with way too many favorites... http://upload.pbase.com/goldcoin/ima...87011/original 5 My entry

| | | Xaran and raniday seem to have the best entries so far. Thought I would learn a new style, and nothing could be harder to do. Going to learn it, even if it kills me lol.
So here is my first attempt at a "Jeremy Sutton" Style. He makes it look so easy. But mine is a mess, but u have to start somewhere. |

| | Hey Danny thanks for the welcome.
Well it looks like I've been a member here since 2003 but for some reason I just haven't been hanging out here.
I must have ran across this site late one night and became a member only to have forgotten I did so by morning.
A couple of weeks ago in another Yahoo Group I belong to a member posted a link to this site for others to find tutorials. That's when I relized I was a member and started checking everything out. I will have to admit there are some fantastic artist hanging around and I'm sure I can learn quit allot from some of the other members here and in some cases just maybe help others learn something new as well.
