My Bio
Although in many ways I am an artist at heart, my skills as a more traditional "artist" tend to be kind of low and limited. Sometimes I come up with something nice, or good, occasionally somewhat better than that. I have increased my digital art ability quite a bit over the last several years, and am better at that than other non-digital mediums.

I used to use Paint Shop Pro, for years, from version 2 or so to X4, but then it was sold to Corel and they kind of messed it up.

So I finally moved to PhotoShop Elements, version 7 or so, and am now using version 10. I have become somewhat proficient in its use, for the things I do, anyway. Full PhotoShop would be overkill for me, plus it's too expensive.

What I like most is exercising and expanding and strengthening and portraying my creativity, which I am much more proficient at than other 'art' areas, and am able to use it in a variety of other areas, as well, including computer programming, writing, etc.

So I engage my creativity for whatever project I am interested in doing and then attempt to create the final artistic result as well as possible to get what I first envisioned.

It's one of my small hobbies. And I think I am good enough at it now that I am fairly satisfied with what I am able to do, most of the time. I wish I had worked on my art more since I was young, because I would probably be much better at it now it than I am. But I took a more science-oriented path, finally coming back to art. Better late than never. I do wish I could draw and create things like the really good artists do, but, unfortunately, I will most probably never achieve that level of ability. Which is okay. Maybe next time around.

I particularly enjoy making web images, at which I have become somewhat proficient, in execution and content, if not always artistry and imagery.

Thanks to everyone who gave me llama badges. I don't know what happened, but it was unexpected.

I'm not the best artist, so I am interested in working with artists who are better than I am, but maybe aren't as good at coming up with ideas and such, don't know what to do, etc. I have a lot of ideas, just not the talent to do them. So maybe we ca...

I think DA needs a Thumbs Up. No thumbs down, just up. Or a Like.

;o) -- It's not called Popeye Uncensored because it sounds funny.
Are you fucking proud of yourself? You've insulted both genders in one post. Yours by implying that being a sexist asshole is funny somehow, and also implying that anyone that anyone that doesn't agree with you is a dumbass; mine in, well, every way. Good job; you're insensitive and emotionless. Congratulations, you're so fucking bullshitty that you can't realize that enough is enough. Great fucking work, PopeyeTheoBitch.

If you want real political commentary, join a discussion, or simply give corrective critique to our page (or negative critique which we love as well). Come Watch the America First Union here on DeviantArt. Together we can make this sight great by spreading positivity and showing through Union and Numbers we are better in every way then these smug and hateful losers.

You are obviously some type of hyper-irrational ignorant, so go fuck yourself.
thank you for adding me to your watch Hi!
