Pet Pal

Saturday, November 14, 2009

Pet Pal was originally painted with soft pastel as a birthday gift for my daughter’s friend Jess in October of 2007, and is taken from a photo provided from Jess of her dog. She is the original artwork of Sketchart26. For the purpose of this design I uploaded Pet Pal to IrfanView were I removed the original background. I then uploaded the new image to Coral Paint Shop Pro XP, where I added in a new background. The design features a small Sheltie with a rainbow background and the wording Pet Pal in pink print unless except a few designs that don’t have the rainbow background. It is now featured on products under the categories of Apparel, Accessories, For The Office, For The Home, Binders, Bookmarks, Invitations, Stationary, Letterheads and Unique Gifts Products. It is also available on Greeting/Note Cards and Postcards found under “Cards & Postage” All products are customizable. To customize a product click on the “Customize” to add or delete text, chose your font style, size or colour, or change the back ground colour. Need help? Or wish to request a particular design?

Meet Jaunldzy

Friday, November 13, 2009

Jaunldzy was first sketched and created out of my imagination in 2007. She is the original artwork of Sketchart26. It was put to me that Jaunldzy would make a good Bas-Relief, so after finding out what this meant I went about my way and began to carve her. She measures the size of A3 paper and is carved into MDF and then painted with Feast Watson Stain & Varnish Rich Jarrah Satin heat dried and sanded back then masked and painted outside with the Rich Jarrah Satin and heat dried and painted over with a coat of Jo Sonja's Gloss Varnish and finally heat dried again. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bas-relief For the purpose of the design she was uploaded to Corel Paint Shop Pro Photo XP, where I cut her out and added in a new background. The design features an alien like creature which takes on the form of a human.
