Side Show

This chicken shows up from the side.

Strokes

I'm sorry, having a computer that can do things well distracted me from all of my important business, running this website. Now in my continued playing with new paint I decided to use one of those fancier brushes to draw a blurry chicken.

The image captures the feelings of the artist and the complexities of depth that the piece reflects. The varying shades of the brush strokes reflect the various facets of the character. The lack of defined color on the left side, the chicken's head, shows the undefined state of the future, while the frayed tail feathers show that the past is something that can be left to the wayside. What really matters is the present.

New Computer

Well, the dark day has arrived. I now own a new computer. As such I am now forced to use the Windows 7 version of paint if I want to work on it.

Oh wait. It looks the same.

Only real problem is that I can't use the brush anymore since it is semi transparent. I liked the cross-hair-ish thing it had before. It was like a preview before you actually made your mark. They added width options to pencil though so I can just use that instead. Of course I still have my laptop too so it's hardly a big deal. I was hoping that among its "features" would be a better text tool, as that was something I would have been likely to use immediately. I'm sure I'll do something with things in it at some point, but we'll see.

5

Five is the grittiest number since the number e. Which is of course 2.7 something and goes on forever. It's like Pi but it's name is less Greek. You know, a real tough guy. Remember that the square of 5 contains 5, because 5*5=25.

TinyPixelsLite

This one an save as a PNG(and send that as an email. Can't post as a PNG from the iPod) Free version can only do 32x32. It's a very straight pixel by pixel image editor. Nice.

Slick

This guy is slick. You can tell because he jelled down his comb and wattle. I made him because I figured I may as well balance out the out of control combs I've had lately.

Also what do you think of that little green muffler thing.

Google Docs Drawing

I was messing about on the computer and I noticed that the Google Docs had a drawings thing, and well, who am I to pass up Google's art program. I was initially confused by the lack of pen, but it had line so I dealt with it. Only after finishing did I notice the "scribble" option, so maybe I'll put out another of these at some point in the future. Also check out that tie.
