Day 76: Precious flower

Created in Photoshop CS 3 Extended using a Wacom Intuos 3


Some photomanipulation and other things have produced this
marvelous flower. Growing in an inhospitable djungle few have ever seen it, and even fewer have returned alive to tell the tale of it's alluring temptation and unimaginable smell.

Day 75: A light is shining

Created in Photoshop CS3 using a Wacom Intuos 3

A light is shining, a sign of hope. It's far too easy to see the things I could have done better, but then I remember that one of the reasons I started this project was to learn and to improve my drawing/painting. And I've sure learned a bit when making this picture, so it's fine in the end :-)

Day 74: Dog and bottle

Created in Photoshop CS3 using a Wacom Intuos 3

A "slightly" surrealistic image of a dog and a - flying - bottle.

And no, this is no fishing car either, just so you know. I have one more on the way, but since my computer is away getting fixed (hopefully) I'm just using a computer they let me borrow in the mean time and it's not as fast as my computer so I'll just try and do some simpler stuff in the mean time. (I also have some other things I'm prioritizing, but that's another thing.)

Computer trouble - so no picture today

Yep, I've tried to create an image for today, but there are some major problems with my monitor so... I'll try to get it fixed as soon as possible, but in case there aren't any more pics for a while you know why.

\/\/SWEDISH\/\/
Jag har försökt göra en bild idag, men min skärm har krånglat så mycket så jag gav upp. Ska försöka fixa den, men om det dröjer ett tag innan det kommer upp en ny bild så vet ni varför.

Day 73: Contrasts in life or death

Created in Photoshop CS3 Extended using a Wacom Intuos 3


And no, there is no hidden car fishing in there. I've stepped away from the theme, mostly because this image (a gift to a friend who had his birthday some days ago) have been taking so much time to create. But also because I like it, of course there are a bunch of things I'd like to do better, but for the most part I'm really happy with it. And just so you don't think I've handpainted this I gotta add that it's mostly edited photos and filters, and a few more "handpainted" details.

Day 72: Cars fishing 2

Created in Photoshop CS 3 Extended using a Wacom Intuos 3

Not sure what to say about this one :-P An experiment with a lot of stuff, so some parts are a bit "over-the-top".

The car is loosely based on a Swedish brand of candy (you can find some images here: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Ahlgrens_bilar ) Just for clarity's sake I gotta say I'm in no way affiliated with them and this should not be seen as related to them in any kind of way.

Day 71: Cars fishing 1 (This weeks theme)

Created in Artrage 2.5 (with a small sketch done in Inkscape first) using a Wacom Intuos 3

A car fishing. :)

If you think that the themes get worse by each week, then I suggest that you contact me and say what you want next weeks theme to be ;) (You can do that even if you like these themes of course.)

Day 70: Worms in hats 7

Created in openCanvas 4.5 using a Wacom Intuos 3

Today you get two worms for the price of one =)

If I wouldn't have had the title all ready for this one as it's part of a theme I'd called it "Imitation".

Created in openCanvas 4.5 using a Wacom Intuos 3

A worm on a rainy day, but as you can see he is prepared.

Day 68: Worms in hats 5

Created in openCanvas 4.5 using a Wacom Intuos 3

Today it's a hat in the more traditional sense, the decorations aren't necessarily all that traditional though.

Day 67: Worms in hats 4

Created in openCanvas 4.5 using a Wacom Intuos 3

Once again I interpret "hat" very widely to present to you the Wormonaut, here seen leaving the Earth to go on one of his intergalactical travels.

Day 66: Worms in hats 3

Created in openCanvas 4.5 using a Wacom Intuos 3

As a worm doesn't have any hands she has to hold the torch and tablet in her mouth :-)
(And just to be sure this doesn't get misunderstood: This is in no way an attempt to ridicule the Statue of Liberty or America or anything at all, it's simply a "wormification" of a known statue. The Statue of Liberty is actually interesting to read about, one place to do that is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statue_of_liberty )

Day 65: Worms in hats 2

Created in openCanvas 4.5 (with some small help from Artrage 2.5) using a Wacom Intuos 3

Continuing this weeks theme, here is a worm in a crown, which can be seen as a kind of hat.
