Wow, this looks great, I would hate to see if you had a lot of time in Vue....really beautiful...love your path. Sharen

Really beautiful, Velen!

That is lovely. I love the realistic long grass and plants

Now that's a place I wouldn't mind visiting!

Im pleased you injoyed it :) I had almost forgoten how much I injoy the ease of use Vue has. Ill try to post a bit more often. Laters Vel

Quite lovely work, Vel! Glad to see you're still around. :)

Wow! What a beauty! :) How'd ya do the grass? Do you use post in a paint program? It looks like Painter grass...very beautiful :). At least I hope it's Painter. I just bought Painter 6 and I need some pointers - I'm hopelessly lost...LOL. The trees and the path all come together for a very lovely composition. Great job! Laurie

Hey Laurie, I've been using Painter 6 for over a year now.. not an expert, but I know a little... well, I know how to draw and paint anyway... Anyhow, we have a Painter forum here, and "Jin" (Jinny) is a person regularly posting there. She is quite the Painter expert, and a really nice and talented lady. Just in case you didn't know....

I was in the Painter forum and there didn't look like there was much activity ;). Anyway, I really haven't delved into it too much yet, but I was really lost when I opened it. I guess I expected it to be more like Photoshop...NOT! LOL. Laurie

Hi yep the grass and flowres are done in Painter.

Painter 6 is a great progie :) you will love it for sure with what you can do with it. the grass is sone with a Smiery Brissel spray brush in oils.

Painter is active but not heavaly so so you will need to join a few boards for info on it. most are fooling with painter 7's water color at this time so this is the things you will see mostly but all will be happy to guide you in other areas as well.

Im not that active here in the painter forum as I just found it my self grin but this board and Indepth are my 2 favorit boards. have fun :)

PS for doing textures for your Vue works painter is bout as good as you can get. Im not downing the other programs at all they all work well for this, my meaning is for an artist with traditional background that finds the painting brushes of the other progs to not quit fit there exspectations so Have fun.

this is a painter WIP to be used as a background pic when its finished for thows that may be interested in its capabiluties.

Cool! I've done an oil painting or two in my life, so maybe I'll warm up to it once I know what I'm doing...LOL. Anyone know of any good books on Painter? I've been to Borders to look, but I couldn't find ANY. I'm gonna look on Amazon here in a few...maybe they'll have something. Laurie

Laurie I have Painter6 f/x and design by Sherry London and Rhoda Grossman Publesher Coriolis. the book has a welth of info for some of painters deeper capabiluties for styalised painting and other things it should be helful to you. when buying books for it make sure you get them for version 6, as 5.5 and below of version 7 and up are quiet diferent from each other. So till your used to the interface and where everything is and what it dose other versions will only put you in confusion melt down grin. If I can help let me know will be happy to help in the limited scope I know and use the program for. Laters Vel

Thanks Vel! Appreciate it :). Laurie
