I am glad to find this place. After a lengthy career in computer software cconsulting, I have decided to make a 180 turn and pursue a career in the arts. Actually, many years ago, I was first a photographer and then a graphics artist. Now, I did all that way before the digital age, but I feel like that most of the skills will transfer. My problem is, it was so long ago, I’m afraid I’ve forgotten everything!
Over the years, I have continued photography, and within the last year made the switch from35mm to digital. Occasionally, I will still shoot film and scan it, but I really like the immediacy and convenience of digital.
Photoshop has been a friend since the 5.x days. (Yes, I’ve upgraded.) Recently, I began to explore Painter. Wow! Has that opened up a whole new world!
Okay, enough for now. I look forward to communicating with all the digital artists here.
