Thank you for your feedback! If you are interested, I am also on Facebook: Stephen F.Tipton...I usually post my recent work there...for my, "art" I use my MN: Farrell. Most of the folks I know are not "artists" but I enjoy hearing how they feel about what I do... Much of my work over that past several years has been "of a religious nature", although I am not, I find the "evocative" part of "art"....making one feel a certain/different way is important to my purpose/process, rather than "oh, isn't that pretty"...and I guess, nothing is quite as evocative as the unknown. Been into Hearts since visiting a superb exhibition along those lines. I will post a couple more pics to my new Artist2Artist site...also look to see what you do. Cheers, Farrell
Thank you for your comment! I really like your piece "Ameland Treeline: March Palette." No, I do not mix natural media with digital. I use mixed VIRTUAL natural media, mostly in Corel Painter which synthesizes various natural media beautifully (but also crashes a lot on my MAC). I do my painting with a wacom tablet and electronic stylus, and will string my images through different software packages to get the effects I want. Occasionally I will integrate a scan of a part of one of my natural media works.
It's always hard to know how to describe the medium when digital is involved. Personally, if I were you, I would not say "watercolor, chalk, ...etc." because those substances do not end up in your finished product (if I understand you correctly). I think saying that would give the viewer/buyer/juror a false expectation.
