Jim Thompson Used to Live Here

Once again while in Thailand I went to visit Jim Thompson's
house he was the founder of the Thai Silk Industry but he mysteriously disappeared while visiting Malaysia
his house sat idle for some time before the Thais took it over and opened it to the public its a beautiful Thai teak house and the gardens are lovely and it backs onto Bangkok's klongs (little canals where the river runs)
below is the original photo of the house taken by me



An elephant visits a temple


for those of you that know me
Thailand is my favorite destination so much so I go there every year to visit

The class task once again was to take a photo and make some changes

I took this photo last holiday while visiting Autthaya Its the Old City of Thailand once the Capitol but nowadays Bangkok is the capital any how after a few battles this place had suffered some damage but it is now under World Heritage Protection its an amazing place and I had the best day visiting there with my guide Warren

I took the photo and over the top I laid my original doodle then I took to adding some colour to it



I have made this piece another time the doodle has been made into a painting as well which has been sold



NO FISHING HERE!


The class task here was to take a photo and change a few things like hue,saturation,well I did all that but thought it looked a little dull still and the bloke was just standing there so I gave him a fishing rod added some funky fish and then placed a huge warning sign "NO FISHING HERE" almost like the Hollywood sign stuck on the side of the hill but this ain't Hollywood baby!

Cat & Mouse Game


This one started life as a doodle on the back of an old bill I scanned it and then opened it up in photoshop and bought it life with a little colour
I think sparkles looks nice now if only she would let that mouse go!

We had sum fun in this class playing with shapes and creating something out of them not as good as whats his name??? that Anthony made us look at on u-tube as soon as I get my journal out will add his name and the link to his u tube videos they were good

Scroll Up Scroll Up

Just a little scrolling
Not sure what I was trying to do here
but its a pretty abstract

At first I thought

My first thoughts on digital art and using Photo shop
was THIS IS GOING TO DO MY HEAD IN !
but on reflection and a little more practise I find I am starting to enjoy it, Now if only my memory will hold onto the information on how to use this program maybe I need to start taking Kinko tablets
to improve it
8-)


I know the feeling Mate!

This Indian is none too happy as he was out shopping for tomahawks and They didn't stock them
this was the story of my life when I lived in Korumburra just about everything that I went out specially to purchase wasn't available it drove me insane,just ordinary things like light cream,coconut milk,and fence extensions now that a whole other story!!

My Favorite Film Star

Yes I am a big lover of Bette Davis
Have lots of her movies in my collection as well as memorabilia and books about her
I took this black and white photo of her reading a book and gave her a little colour a bit of lippy on the lips and a big red chair I think she looks great what do you think?

Help Me

Took this photo of a kerb side and gutter
and made a crime scene out of it

will someone please help him!

The Early Duck Gets Fresh Orange Juice EVERYDAY!

Today's subject for digi class was "early"
so here is mine the inspiration behind this one is the phrase 
"the early bird catches the worm"
which I have adapted to my own crazy interpretation
