Here is a little project I've been working on.
Susan Cameron asked me to do some drawings of her parents , Ross and Glenda's, childhood homes. She sent me a photo and a photocopy, both not very good. I decided to scan them and fix them up in Photoshop and then I fooled around for quite awhile with different Photoshop techniques. I ended up using a technique that used a watercolor type brush. Laying down the brush strokes was surprisingly allot like real watercolor. I had to be percise and plan what I was doing. I had to erase and start again many times. I finished by printing them on watercolor paper. I'm quite pleased with the results. Here are the before and after images.
