MY NETWORK HAS MOVED

You may not know that I owned an artist network called Digital Whisper. A place for digital artists to get together and share techniques and participate in challenges as well as ATC Swaps and Round Robin.

This network has moved to a BLOG and I would love to invite  all you artists that love a challenge to come join me at  Digital Whisper
Hope to see you there !

HARD TO BELIEVE!

 I remember watching my Mother wash clothes in a wringer washer like this

Then she got me one when I married at the age of 15 and I washed my first Son's diapers in a tub  like the one seen here on the floor. I rubbed blisters on my knuckles using a washboard until I got my brand new electric wringer washer!

I can't believe how time flies and how technology has progressed
Now I have a state of the art front loader and dryer to match both with digital settings.

Looking back at photos like this make me feel old but blessed.
Did you have a washer like this too?

MY NEW ONLINE GALLERY

Not to many years ago I didn't know beans about Digital Art or Photoshop. I loved the look and wanted to learn so I had a geek friend install the latest version of Photoshop and taught myself how to create digitally. I had many friends online that helped me and one friend that gave me one hands on lesson on how to use the opacity feature and I was hooked!

I have been creating since 2008 now and I am still learning. I love the new grunge style and of course my favorites are Steampunk and Victorian.

I take Fine Art Grunge classes online through Sebastian Michales. His classes are excellent and you can do them anytime you want. They are full of tutorial videos and textures, backgrounds, vectors and brushes. If you are interested just ask me.

Last week I created my own online Gallery. It has the same name as the one I had here on Blogger but this one is up to date and I have learned much about copyright so all my work is done with copyright free images.

The name of my Gallery is Patricia Creations and you can visit it by clicking rhis link

I hope you Enjoy !
