Are you a painter?

I shall have to throw this across to the other half, see what she makes of it. She's better at the computer art than I am, I'm still rather a pencil and paper kinda chap.

Pencil and paper for me too for creating the initial drawing or sketch. I still find drawing from scratch with a Wacom tablet awkward no matter what program it is.

Indeed, I honestly don't know how she does it. She still does pencil and paper scans on some pictures, well, pencil then ink in the line art and then scan and go from there, but sometimes she just starts from scratch on the tablet. Completely baffles me, I mean I used to use a tablet back at Middle School but you give me one now and I'm all over the shop with it.

She's fortunate that way. Some people have the ability. I just find moving my pen over one surface while staring at another too much of a disconnect.

Maybe it's tablet PC time.

Money, money, money.

Eh I about as much artistic ability as a rock, so no I don't paint.

My father was a 'Mahler Meister' in Germany, had his own business there, anything to do with paint he did, calligraphy as well!
He, since retiring many years ago, has also painted many pictures, landscapes, portraits, stills etc etc.
Incredibly gifted man.
Me? Not an artistic bone in my body
