fOnline Workshop Description
SOFTWARE TO ENHANCE CREATIVITY
February 12, 2022 12:00 Noon to 3:00 pm Eastern Time
There is growing use of software to assist with creativity for painters. I have been using image management software to enhance my references and digital drawing software to plan and enhance my work for a few years. Participants in my painting workshops have asked that I do a workshop focusing on the use of the software itself. This Zoom workshop will be 3 hours in length. It is intended for artists who have taken one of my earlier workshops – from Leading Edge Workshops or elsewhere. I will be using ACDSee for image manipulation and ArtRage Vitae and Infinite Painter 7 for drawing/painting. All are available for IOS (Apple) and Android devices. All of these can be complex and challenging to learn – but for my (our) needs as painters I use less than 20 % of the tools available – keeping it simple. Join me as I demonstrate how I plan and manipulate my images in preparation for painting. It is all part of the new creativity process.
This workshop will be recorded and available to students for two weeks after the workshop is over.
