Wow awesome Kristy! Congrats on geting Painter. That program scares me a little. everytime I start painting in it I just get frustrated and go back to Photoshop lol.

Did you happen to look at any tutorials or use any books to get yourself started with Painter? (I could use a little help) Or did you just jump right in?

Excellent work. I especially like the fur on Sesshy.

Well the first program I was using (Adobe Illustrator CS2) I could never get the hang of. It was so difficult to understand how to use all of the different brushes and stuff. But then I switched to Corel Painter IX and I LOVE IT!!! It is so easy to use and easy to understand. Yes Anyway, I just jumped right into it. I have this way of trying to figure things out for myself. I have quite an analytical mind. And then I just kept experimenting until I came up with this. Smile I used a bunch of different brushes for colring this one. Mostly I used the airbrushes. I have always loved airbrushed art. And it gives pretty nice results. Oh and Corel Painter does give you an option of trying it out for free for 30 days. I fell in love with the program so I ordered it. Thanks again Susie. ^_^
