I am relatively new to electronic drawing and so using the tools is out of my comfort zone. I usually try to create effects just by using paint & color, even when drawing electronically. I am amazed at the effects that artists create with these tools. I gave it my best try, and I hope I can continue to learn and use the tools to improve my art.

This drawing was done on the Lascaux board, using the following tools: layers, straight line, curve line, oval, filled oval, rectangle, filled rectangle, blend, blur, dodge, & burn. I tried to use as many of the tools as there were available for the board. I wanted to use the magic wand for something, but I still don't understand how or when I would use that tool.

Great entry!

Wow pretty nice! If I stare into the distance, and not directly at it, it looks perfect.

I like the way this has a sharpness about it, retains a realistic quality, yet has a sort of out of focus shiny, glistening effect.

I think I'm most impressed with the fact that the reflection is very accurate.

I just wanted to add a note that this was a difficult choice, I love this pic, but what it came down to was usage of tools. Wish I could award first place to both.

Congrats on second!

you are so good at glass jp. I love the chipped stopper - I used to have one just like that . . .

Okay, this is awesome. That marble blows me away. You have some wonderful work here and I'm so glad I'm having a chance to see the rest of it that I haven't already seen. Excellent!
