Well, i havent posted in awhile so here are some more. the first one is a little more subtle, the second, not so much.

my dad and my nephew:

My dad and my nephew with clearer skin, less wrinkles, and whiter teeth.

Chris Merritt playing a really awesome show at velour.

some brush fun (a little over-done i think. it was my first time):

i also forgot the second 'T' in his name so i went back in and added another one. but i sucks cause the text layer was buried in consolidation. so the other 't' looks kinda wonky.

I'm goin to Bobdy Land!

Alrighty, haven't posted in awhile. But here are some recent photoshop tricks i've played around with. As you can see, i was on a date. Thats right.... a real live date. It was extremely fun.

This is my good friend Hillary!

I am a pioneer woman.

This is a fun one.

ok, this thing is pretty dang cool. i drew this. but...... on a computer!!! ok, not that cool. but my buddy has this thing called a Bamboo. its a little pad and pen hooked up to the computer and you can doodle with it. pretty sweet. then i put it in photoshop and stuck some gradient in there and whatnot.

Ok, this one is kinda dumb. I found this weird lookin canyon just on the side of the road in alpine. its only like two feet long. so i tried making it look big. I think i overdid the darks/contrast in it. But i think i did a good job getting the trees out of it. one cloud looks a little funky, but overal its ok. I really need to work on editing in myself into other pictures.

Here are some more Photoshop adventures. Hopefully you can click on the pictures to see the full versions of them on this post because the cracked effect is really cool. I used a picture from the Yaks BOTB which we won! Hurray.

Photoshop fun!

As a salute to photoshop im gonna put a few pictures with before/afters up. i am getting in the bad habit of ignoring my blog. so i'm gonna try and keep visitation up a little more. even if its just a picture post. and nothing more.
