I remember it in my Grandmother’s house and I thought it was very special when I was a child. When I inherited it I decided it was ratherContinue reading “Grandmother’s Lamp”
Digital still life
I created this still life drawing using I-draw program. It took several hours! I could have created this quicker using a painting program but I’m trying to learn how to use layers, like many digital programs use.
