In this picture as in all the others, I used Photoshop 6. It
was simply a blending of clouds and the blur tool, but it made
some pretty interesting results. Also added was the lens flare
effect for the sun, little Photoshop trick I use, I call it
instant sun, lol.
What
graphics software do you use on a regular basis?
Photoshop 6, Adobe Illustrator, Jasc Animation Shop, Ulead Cool
3D
What
was the first graphics program you learned?
Microsoft Windows Paint
What
is your all-time favorite graphics program and why?
My all time favorite and always will be is Adobe Photoshop and
here is why. Because there is so much to it that people, including
myself do not yet understand its full power. Not only are there
over 10 ways to make the same thing, you vary the same thing
100x's over or more! Endless capabilities.
How
long have you been working with graphics software?
2 yrs
How
do you use graphics software in your day-to-day activities?
Only in personal projects, portfolio pieces. or freelance/student
work.
What
is your best graphics tip or piece of advice?
Practice and learn what software you are using right now. Sure
there are a lot of programs out there, but that "old dog" you're
using right now, I bet, still has an old trick or two that you
just haven't found yet. Also make sure if you're looking for
a graphics job, call around and find out what software they
use, and if you can get your hands on it and learn it, learn
it.
Where
do you get your inspiration?
From what I see. Mostly nature scenes, imagination.

One of my most recent. Made also in Photoshop. Just kinda got
the wierd inspiration to draw a wall. The vines were actully
an after-thought, but they turned out to be great. It was actully
pretty easy too.
This is a little cartoonish number I did, using a great filter
called Primus. Its free and recommmend it to any Photoshop user.
I made the tree using the hardest tool in Phtoshop I feel but
also the best, the P.Lasso.

This is also another ocean like picture, kinda my favortie kind
to make really. Also again here is the P.Lasso tool, very time
consuming, but good results.

This is a late night Photoshop idea that was first a flop and
turned out to be pretty interesting. Not really the most active
though.
