I got a book on Photoshop and learnt how to paint. It&#8217;s a bit different to real painting but I like it!<br />

<p>I&#8217;ve been doing some art recently as it&#8217;s nice to be creative in different ways sometimes. I thought I would share my process.</p>
<p>Once I&#8217;ve chosen what I want to draw, I start looking at different shapes and patterns. I normally make some rough sketches.<br />
<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/starpoi/5041432222/" title="20101001-DSC_3115 by starpixie, on Flickr" onclick="pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/www.flickr.com/photos/starpoi/5041432222/?referer=');"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4084/5041432222_29bd7c81f0.jpg" width="500" height="332" alt="20101001-DSC_3115" /></a></p>
<p>Then I draw up a big version. I like to make them big so I can create bigger prints. I drew my <a href="http://starpixie.co.uk/postcards-pack-of-10">cats</a> small and it means I&#8217;ll have to redo them if I want to ever print them big. Because the owl is symmetrical, I only have to draw half of it, then I can flip it in Photoshop.<br />
<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/starpoi/5041432448/" title="20101001-DSC_3117 by starpixie, on Flickr" onclick="pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/www.flickr.com/photos/starpoi/5041432448/?referer=');"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4126/5041432448_afac14187c.jpg" width="332" height="500" alt="20101001-DSC_3117" /></a></p>
<p>Then I play around in Photoshop with layers and colours until I get a result I like. Sometimes I&#8217;ll make several versions of the same picture.<br />
<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/starpoi/5041445178/" title="20100927-Untitled-1-Edit by starpixie, on Flickr" onclick="pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/www.flickr.com/photos/starpoi/5041445178/?referer=');"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4108/5041445178_5c47bb4c48.jpg" width="409" height="500" alt="20100927-Untitled-1-Edit" /></a></p>
<p>I&#8217;m now working on a hare<br />
