Getting better.........

artogator Mar 07, 2007 07:39 PM

.........at taking pics, still a little fuzzier than I'd like though. One of you guys suggested a post of both my cham and one of my paintings, so here it is. p.s.- I may be getting better at taking pics of my cham, but I'm still pretty bad at photographing my art, the painting is hanging in a gallery in the pic so I didn't really have the best oppurtunity to shoot.

...forgot to mention the painting is like 35"x66", another reason my photography skills do it no justice.

thanks, I'm in Greenville, North Carolina. I'd would be interested to see your friends work. I love herp art, but most of what I've seen is a literal, realistic stlye of work. I'm trying to go in a different direction with it.
