6-26-16 ~ My First Attempt to Use PSE6 to Sketch

Yesterday when I was going through the blogs I love to visit, I went over to Sheila's
 Orange Esmerelda home. Her "fish" contribution to Mix It Monthly inspired me to open up my 
Photoshop CS6 and give painting a picture from scratch for the first time. It took me three hours to come up with these three pictures, but it was well worth the time. I learned about brushes and other things on CS6. Thanks, Sheila, for inspiring me to try something new. These are pretty rough with LOTS of room for LOTS of improvement, but I have taken my first baby step. I tried to create the feel of some drips and drops.

My Prissy Girly Fish

My Orange Fish in the Rain

My Blue Fish with Yellow

Sally Ann in the Flowers
After I finished my fish, I decided to try one of my little girls.

  1. Genie, these are marvellous, you must have a steady hand (much steadier than mine). I love their little fishy heart mouths and their decorated bodies. Prissy Girl fish has exactly the right expression for her name, Orange Fish is giving us the eye and Blue Fish looks rather cool.
    Sally Ann looks so friendly among the flowers and I like her hairstyle.
    I like the sea environments you have given the fishes too with the sea flowers and grasses.
    Great fun.

  2. Wow, your fishes are so enchanting! They all have its own personality but my favorite is the orange one!! I also love it, when they have a colored background and swim right over the seagrass! So amazing to do such cool art digital! I have never tried this on my own....I am addicted to glue and collage and this is something that I couldn´t do with this, haha ♥ Conny http://mix-it-monthly.blogspot.de
