I painted this from scratch using Corel Painter X. I used John Derry's water brushes I just received from his webinar on august 28. These are great brushes for the watercolor effect.

Lady sings the Blues


I painted this yesterday with Corel PainterX using a tutorial by Jeremy Sutton from his book'"Painter Creativity" and a photo I found on the Wet Canvas website. Jeremy's tutorials are great and I have learned a lot from them.

Native American-charcoal drawing


I drew this from a photo I found on you tube of beautiful Native American men. I love doing faces but need a lot of practice. I don't get the proportions right so I do a lot of erasing. I'm going to do some live model drawing at the Peninsula Art Academy on May 30 with a group so hope to pick up some pointers.
