About

I am in my final year of studying to be a primary school teacher in Brisbane, Australia and I work part time at my church in administration. My husband and I live in a small flat with a big bedroom window and an amazing view of green grass and big trees. We want to live adventurously, generously and faithfully. I'd like to be self-suffiecient one day with a big overgrown veggie and herb garden, lots of flowers and lots of birds and make bread, jam and cheese and all those sorts of things. Below is my church webpage link, we're working on getting rid of the fluro green...I take lots of the pictures...

The effect is called lens Vignetting.  You can do it in a multiple ways.  1. You can add it with a layer in photoshop and brush it out.  2. If you shoot in RAW in CS3 it has an option to add it.  or 3. You can get a filter for you camera to add it.  

I hope that helps ;)

hi. Rockingham is (http://www.rockingham-tourism.com/intro.html)   is about 50kms south of Perth. Its a beutiful spot, a little cool at the moment, but an awesome sleepy (at least for me) seaside village (population 86,000).

Where abouts are you in brissy?

the garden piece i did:
was done in photoshop using illustrator elements. most of my pieces  are done using both illustrator and photoshop, constructing it in photoshop. the tree was a series of layers that i rasterized and did some overlay options. the dabs is just from erasing parts of the tree. i used a piece of cardboard image to get most of my texture.
hope that helps.

Yeah, I use coffee, as in coffee.  A lot of underdeveloped countries use common stuff for drawing and image making.  Coffee and Red Wine are a great combination with charcoal, conte, graphite, pen & ink...  You should try it.  The wine makes a beautiful watery-pink stain and the coffee creates a nice brown or sepia tone.  Then you can work back into it with other medium.  I saw a show from Cuba once where all the guys work was wine on canvas.

Thanks, yeah, I draw from photographs.  I  prefer to draw with models, but my wife and other people aren't that patient with me. :)  I typically grid an 8x10 photo into 1/4 in squares and then I grid my paper to about 2in squares and then I go to town.  
Right now I'm trying to work much larger and looser with charcoal & coffee and a brush on large paper (5 ft. x 10 ft) etc.  Thanks for the encouragement.  
I like your painting of the bottle with tears.  It might be cool to do a whole bunch of those.  Each bottle being different from the next with a specific event in mind where your tears were shed.  I think seeing all those lined up with frames on a wall with the date of each event would be really engaging and powerful.  Just a thought.
