Silvia's skills & profile

Hi!

Briefly:
You are invited to attend the first second life exhibition for don hosho.. showing his digital painting portraits!

Time:
Friday 15th Aug 2008 | 2:00 p.m. SLT.


Details:
A noob was standing in a life concert at the cafe, back in October, 2006. And while he was caming .. he liked some scene, and no one has imagined this noob is a real life illustrator. No one imagined too that his real life is full of drawing sketches in place.. and paint them later.

As any life painter, he was refusing to paint out of nature.. even when he had clients in real life asking him to paint them, he never accepted photos ... but at that day.. he felt he has to paint what he sees..
Yes, it is a virtual world, not a real world, but .. there is something natural behind all these pixlated masks, and dolls..

A crazy idea came to my mind, the concept of the pixlated painter that paints pixlated subjects and people, by his real life hand using pixlated mediums.. and to be the first classic painter in second life .. as my first digital painting is dated back to 30 oct. 2006! and it is in the exhibition .. and it was for a beatiful lady standing in the cafe, listening to the life music there..

Digital painting is an emerging art form in which traditional painting techniques such as watercolor, oils, impasto, etc. are applied using digital tools by means of a computer, a digitizing tablet and stylus, and software. Traditional painting is painting with a physical medium as opposed to a more modern style like digital.

I have lived the life of Edgar Degas for about 2 years, painting portraits and making money through painting portraits.. a life i wished to live.. I called it " SL painting " and I decided these days to make an exhibition of paintings I have commissioned or sold in world.. to share my second life experience with other second life users.

Thank you,
Don Hosho

dear friends, I wanna direct your attentions to some excellent photoshop tutorials created by our common friend Ji_Dallagio

I think you should have a look at them, because most probably they will help you a lot

First Tutorial: Working on Layers
http://www.koinup.com/Ji_Dallagio/work/55124/as-list/

Second Tutorial: Blending and changing colors
http://www.koinup.com/Ji_Dallagio/work/55340/as-list/

Third Tutorial: Extract Images from their currect backgrounds
http://www.koinup.com/Ji_Dallagio/work/55480/as-list/

Thanks Ji!
These tutorials are not about Second Life or some other worlds, but are about Photoshop and Postprocessing, so I think that most of you can be really interested!

I invite other members to share their tecniques and create tutorials using the storyboard tool! I'll give to each tutorial the maximum of visibility in order to help the whole community! Enjoy Koinup!

Hi, there's alot going on at the moment with the pileups and other projects and its all extremely valuable work BUT....I really urge mentors to keep checking the works for review. And when you check them please do review them...give a critique if you can....that's the reason they have put them there, the submitters are asking for advice. (yes i know nag nag nag ;-))))

Many thanks chums xxxx

Just so everyone knows...anyone can take part in any of the projects currently running, the mentors scheme, the pileup work or any of the other projects going on at the moment. All these ideas are transferable to other worlds too not just secondlife. Don't wait to be asked (no-one else has lol)....JOIN IN!! ;-) If you have any other ideas, share them with us..its all part of the learning process.
