just a tree on a hill


Here is something i just decided to draw up. I setup the laptop on the table then sat back on my couch and painted about 4 feet from my monitor. I want to try and paint more and more like this, it feels more like painting and helps me focus more on just doing and not worrying about layers, brush opacity etc. All done in Photoshop CS. Well, here it is.

Nice Matt! I think that's a great way to loosen up your brush strokes and get a lively feel in the compostion!
