There is so much possibility in an open space.

54 of 365 is a fiery line #GIMP

A fiery line

 

So I was looking through past sketches, and I came across an effect that I had done in Inkscape that adapts well (better even) to the GIMP. I created a few lines in a transparent layer using a wacom tablet. Then I duplicated that layer and blurred it. Finally, I created a dark red layer underneath. The result is a glow effect.

I don’t have anything to add to this. It’s so very true.

52 of 365 is a farewell note #GIMP

 

Farewell note
Farewell note

 

In case anyone still doesn’t know, I’m leaving my long-term position at Rider at the end of this week to begin work at Princeton University. So I was talking on the phone, and my friend Marianne stopped by, and in her typical polite fashion, to keep from interrupting me, she made me a note and showed me through the window. It said simply, on an 8.5×11 sheet, in Sharpie “Good Luck (smiley) Have fun! i will miss you (frownie).” It was a beautiful, simple sentiment, and was more than the object, but the act itself.  I wanted to capture the beautiful simple sentiment in the note and share it with you. Thank you, Marianne. I’ll miss you, and Rider, dearly.

It’s so true. This is Sunday’s sketch. I’ll have another one for y’all later.
