I had a blast today. Totally went nuts! I finally got a chance to sit down and play with my tablet! Woooohooooo, am I in LOVE! I have a sudden creative burst, with all sorts of ideas... now to try and figure it all out! lol I started the morning just wanting to play, get used to the pen pressure etc. Then the ideas started flowing and I kept switching things up... and I was actually liking what I was doing! lol Which is absolutely amazing... usually whenever I attempt to make something for my home myself, I think it looks... I dunno, like I made it myself! ha ha! These I am ok with though... I even framed them already! Crazy!
I made them for my work area... but who knows were they will end up! heee! For the quote, I used a font as a template layer and then did my own writing/sketching over top... deleting the original font as I went, leaving only what I had done with the tablet. Cheating? Yes! ...I want to get to the point that I can sketch/draw a quote, and actually like how it looks! lol This was definitely good practice though! ...it turned out a bit 'doodle-y' looking, but I am diggin the random messiness of it! If I had thread for my sewing machine I probably would have stitched over it as well! lol How I let myself run out of thread, I have no idea! lol I am picturing these two prints mixed in with photos, filling a large space on a wall... they will probably even end up in different frames... who knows! I am just beyond thrilled that I actually made something! :)
Tablet = FUN!
Can you make me something.....please. I already know what wall I would put it on....
