Hi, I'm Andrea, and I'm interested in creatures and plants both wild and tamed, and people of all sorts. I only use a compact digital camera ,as I love being able to get it into a back pocket, and not have to cart heavy kit about. I carry a Panasonic Lumix TZ series, binoculars and a hand lens almost everywhere.Most of my outings are with the dogs so I only use point and shoot.
I am getting the hang of Photoshop, thanks to some very kind folk on RR!
I have a wildlife garden in Bournemouth, Dorset, in the UK, and spend a lot of time there . I retired from teaching art to teenagers a while ago.
I'm now getting some good results with my digi compacts; it took me a while to make the switch from my old film camera, an 1960 ish Pentax Spotmatic, but the mistakes are much cheaper!
I have 4 lodgers, 3 dogs and a parrot who, as at 2017, I have had 40 years.
I has so far had 19 dogs, mostly rescues.

Great detail and eye! It seems artists today have so much choice of materials. When I first did watercolour 40+ years ago only the expensive brushes would do. I suppose the acrylic media changed the way people worked having the out of tube thickness of oils, yet able to be thinned with water for washes like watercolour. Then the late great Bob Ross said " paint could be put on with your shoe " on one of his tutorials!

Both photos are cool to check out all of the different brush hairs - I like chalk in so many shades of colors!

OhSoCheapo, a brand with which I am well acquainted. You show them in a most attractive light. The different colors and textures, the silver and even the wood grain all seem to work in harmony to present a superb image.
