Winter Layering


That is what we do, layer in this cold, but we can do some on the computer also and feel confident with warm.


This is a watercolor winter scene of NW Wisconsin, I filled background with color, not a solid color but several colors, I added a photo of a sea fan, and layered it to the back so the colors would show through, I added my painting, cropped, copied, pasted, and layered several times,different sections of the painting. There are 4 sections of the painting plus the total painting. My program is Printshop 10. Not new at all, I have had it 6 years. I hate to admit this but have just learned more about it and how to use it. I got it to make cards and labels, I had no idea of the possibilities. I was thrilled to put artwork on my own on a card. In a way it is a great gift to not have known as something to be thrilled about makes for a good day.


I am working on my journal that each page has to have a hand, so far the hands have been pretty elementary, I so enjoy doing faces, I have to have one of those also on each page. I will show soon it takes a bit of courage. Create something today, have a good feeling.
