Portfolio has a new addition

You can see it on my Portfolio page on this blog. Pages (only one besides the blog) are in a menu under the header photo.

I added a new drawing. As I've created new images, I try to remember to upload them everywhere. My drawing category is building up now, with three images. At the moment, one is an oil pastel (the mountain biker), one is a pastel sketch (with both dry and wet techniques), and the third is today's addition - the cat Tiggie in PanPastel.

Check out the photos category while you're there. You'll see I typically like a bright and rich look, accomplished with something called "bloom" effect.

Another of my favourite photo techniques is to make blends. For example, a blend of several portraits of a person at work and/or play, letting some aspects of each image show through, which produces definitely non-traditional look. I also like to blend photos with illustrative layers, although my images of that are not really high-enough resolution for the portfolio. I'm working on learning to fix that using Photoshop and perhaps re-doing some of my favourite blends from the past.

It's all a work in progress!
