    It's been awhile since I last posted here. I still look at Artrage forum from time to time to see all awesome great arts created by Artrage. For me, I have been doing more real mediums art like experiencing the watercolor, acrylic and oil as well as drawing too. To feel the differences in the process between the digital ones I did. I would say it's some kind similar and some what differences in others during the process.

    One thing I do know absolutely is without Artrage, I wouldn't go this far in my art making and journey. I really would want to say thank you from bottom of my heart to Artrage developers and the team. You all made my life more beautiful and meaningful.

    I haven't done much in digital recently. So if you don't mind, I would post just few recent ones I experienced with watercolor, acrylic, and oil.

    the cat painting is especially done for a friend who rescued kitties and adopted them as her own.

    Nice to hear from you Pai, you have a remarkable talent and it is great that you are exploring traditional media like acrylics, watercolors and drawing I think it gives you a great appreciation of the skill and talent at ArtRage to be able
    to emulate those mediums so accurately and simply in a digital way.

    So great to see you're still painting, Pai.

    One format helps the other for sure. All developing the eye. So these water colors are looking nice. The thing that drove me nuts was that the pigment always seemed to dry a lot duller than when wet. But since nobody who later was looking at the art when it was wet and more saturated, it really was only my own quirk. I think experienced watercolorists know how to anticipate that.

    Anyway, it appears you're having a pretty strong creative burst using all kinds of materials and it's wonderful to see. Hope you're well.

    Thank you gxhpainter. You were right about the years I did on Artrage did help me a lot when I use the real mediums painting.

    Hi Alexandra, it's so nice to see you still painting and in the forum as well. Thanks

    Hi Dakey, thanks for your nice words. Yes, I also found watercolour is the hardest to control but I quite like the lightness when in wet and the soft feel during painting. As for the dullness, I will paint in few layers while it's still wet, so it won't be that dull when it dries. I think. These days I have tried to paint two to three times every week in different mediums. I didn't do much in digital as my computer is getting old and nearly broken, every time I have to boot up the system few times in order to have it turn on. That's frustrating. Guess it's about time to get a new PC, maybe in Spring time.

    My health has improved a lot. Thanks to the natural therapies methods and Tai Chi too..haha.

    Hi everyone, it's been over a year since my last post. My computer was having big problem to boot up since it's over 10 years old now. It's not easy for me to take it outside to fix it in here especially in winter time. Also I have some eyes problem that prevented me to see the light on monitor or even tablet that much for awhile. Today, I managed to use 30 mins trying to boot up and thought I would come on to forum to say hi to everyone. In the past year, I still continue to learn how to draw and paint in real mediums. Yeh, I don't think I can get rid of doing art in my rest of my life....haha.

    Here are some sketches and painting I did awhile ago.

    I am getting clumsy working on computer. Taking me awhile to post the above images. It's not very great drawings. Still learning. The last two are arcylic paintings I used references on pinterest. More like my style I used to do on digital. I hope you all like them.

    I hope Artrage developer and administrators won't mind I posted non Artrage pieces here. :P Overall, what inspired me and brought me into the wonderful art world is Artrage. Without Artrage program and amazing developers, I would never go this far. Thanks to you all.

    Hopefully, next year in Spring time, I will get my computer fix with new motherboard (it's been over 10 years, too old), and also my eyes have more improvements and able to work in front of a monitor again. If I can't come on Christmas time, I wish you all have a wonderful Christmas Holidays

    Those Acrylics are magnificent.

    What you achieve with so few strokes is amazing!
