So Artful - Fishy

June has given us "fishy" for a theme this week. I'm still exploring the use of sketching. Granted my sketches are VERY rudimentary, the idea of using them in digital art is intriguing, and I'm having fun investigating. Background and border here are by April Mouse. Various fonts were used. The fisherman was sketched, scanned, colored in Corel Paint, and imported and finished in Digital Image Pro. Thanks for bearing with me through this learning process! I realize you're all helpless victims!!!

    I love the pun! And I love your fisherman plus fish! You ARE a natural at this, Bev, and I hope we see a lot more of your new found talent. Well, new found to your friends but not, I am sure, to yourself.
