bluAngeldesigns

BluAngeldesigns.com is on it's way...

The site is finally set up with a few images displayed but there is much work still to be done. More images to create/finish/upload. More formatting for a more bluangelic look. More code to decipher - bleugh! It's been fun so far and I'm pleased with the site in progress. Meanwhile I am working on creating more images for RecyclingCDs (Valentine's Day is fast approaching) and sketching as usual.



As we left the scanner back in UK, I'm having to take photos of my sketches with a digital camera and upload them from the memory card. This is not the most ideal way of uploading sketches as it is difficult to capture all the marks on paper onto the camera image and then to access them all in Photoshop. Nevermind, I am taking this as an opportunity to experiment with my sketch work and see what the cameras (Sony Cybershots 4.1 & 5.1), Photoshop and I can make of them.

I've also downloaded a free 30 day trial of Adobe(Macromedia) Freehand MX which is an amazing tool. I'm loving experimenting with it but dreading the day when the 30 day trial comes to an end. There's no way I can afford to buy the software - why is it so expensive? - so I will just try to learn as much as I can and hope I can remember it when I eventually earn enough to buy a copy - sigh!
