This first one is called Flowers And Eggs.
I painted it on canvass, took photos of it and uploaded to my painting program called ArtRage. (Best $20 I have ever spent on art supplies). I then manipulated the image, saved multiple images then put into windows movie maker, added some music and uploaded to youtube. I did render the video with 4 different songs, but chose this version because my husband liked it best.

Then this one called Dab & Scrape, this was my first one when I first started using the ArtRage program when all I could really do was dab out some paint and scrape it around with the palate knife tool. None of my dab and scrapes looked like anything in and of themselves. So I put them all together in my movie maker program and added some music. I chose the music because it just so happened that this song fit the time frame of the image time line.

I would post this in the art forum, but I am not a current donor and can't post there. So if anyone else want to do it for me, be my guest. I just want to share my work.

All comments are welcome. I hope you enjoy my work. Thank you so much for looking.

6. To be honest, I'd rather see stills of your artwork,

as opposed to a video with music. Do you have any that you'd like to post? I tend to get distracted by the panning shots, special effects, and the music.

From what I could gather from the YouTube links, the paintings look very pleasing to the eye, though.

7. I would love to share the stills of my work but,

my hard drive crashed two weeks ago and of course EVERYTHING is on it.

But thanks for looking.

10. I love it

I love your work -- both the original paintings and the computer program you used to manipulate them. :bounce:

I'm an artist, too. :hi:

Just dumped off three paintings for a spring show.

Is that oil or acrylics?

11. Thanks for looking.

The flowers and eggs was oil on canvas board.

I highly recommend the ArtRage program. It is so realistic it is unbelievable. They have a free demo and the full program is only $20. You should check out their forum. This is the gallery section of their forum.

The dab & scrape was all computer generated.

Is there someplace I can see your art? This is one of the only places I have shown my work. I have a few pieces I would like to have in a show somewhere.

Good luck with your showing.
