Closer than before

Here's a little work-in-progress on my latest paintover. They're a lot better than some of the previous starts, which I tweeted yesterday. (My Twitter ID is @artistlisamb.) I think I may try one or two more -- hell, I've sealed ten other photocopies. Or I may choose one of these and call it good. If you have experience painting skin tones of people of color, lemme know fer Gawd's sake.

Artsplash!

Had a pretty good time at Artsplash in Edmonds yesterday. I only have a quick moment to post via the new phone, but here are a few scenes I was able to catch when not protecting the glass art from TwoBoo's less-than cautious attention.

The first photo features works by my friends Celeste Douville and Tonnie Wolfe (conveniently placed next to each other!). Enjoy your Monday!

Have new camera phone, will travel

The Husband promised me when our new camera phones came in, we'd have a photo shoot. He promised! And delivered. Let the special effects begin!

 

We got myTouch 4G Slide phones, partly because they're crazy powerful, but mainly because I now switch back and forth between phone and actual camera when I'm taking pictures. So I also upgraded my Vignette app (it's like Hipstamatic for Android phones).

"Velvia" with vignette effect in the above photo, then the same shot with the "dots" effects.

We also gave The Boy our old camera so he could do his own photo shoot, which thrilled him to pieces.

No camera for TwoBoo, who had to settle for being a model running around in the dirt.

 

Gotta go. My phone wants me to download the rest of my photos.
