Painting Digitally The Good Old Fashioned Way, The Complete Trilogy (Painting Digitally, The All-in-One Edition) Kindle Edition

Introducing my "digital painting" method using an old drawing software. It has always been my dream to use a digitlal app as an actual painting tool. You know, that actual rub-a-dub-dub, brush, brush sort of thing you can do via the conventional way of painting. So in lieu of this, I developed my own digital painting method and I want to share this to others.I developed my own digital painting method and I want to share this new-found hobby of mine to others, who, like me are wanting to paint again. I want them to again experience the thrill and satisfaction of being able to create and be creative. To be an artist once again. Because artists never die...they just paint away. Once an artist — always an artist.Many will ask, why not make use of the software's advanced features? Why go through this route when there is an easier way? Yup, why not, indeed! The features of digital drawing programs are so much easy to use and much faster. Just a click here and there and presto, you've got a work that looks like a real painting. However, creating painting-like-artworks using this route gives me that hollow and dull feeling inside. You might think it is weird but, yeah, that's exactly how I feel. Even if I did it myself, I cannot completely say I own it because, to me, it's a product of technology that anybody can re-create on their own.Bottom line. My method makes me happy and fulfilled. It's my happy pill! There's contentment and a sense of accomplishment every time I finish my painting work.So that's it, I'm back to what I called earlier... the good old fashioned way — using a digital drawing program. Then again, as a reminder, You won't be using its advanced features, filters and plug-ins. You will do everything M-A-N-U-A-L-L-Y. Remember canvas, paints, brushes etc. etc. — the things we use in traditional painting? Technically, you will still be using them albeit a difference. Instead of using real canvas, brushes and paints, you will be using its digital version (plus some!).Oh, as an added bonus, I've included here a technique where you can create a brand new artwork by just tweaking the method just a tiny-weeny bit.One more time on the road, as the cliché goes and the same goes for this final installment of "Painting Digitally, The Good Old Fashioned Way". It's been a great ride and I thank those who have supported me with this journey. Read more
