Original Digital Paintings are not created from a Photograph, but from "scratch" on a "blank" Photoshop Canvas, using a combination of many Photoshop "Brushes" which work much like real brushes used with Oil Paint. Click any area of the Painting, to see the detail in HIGH Definition, as it will look on a larger Canvas, Print, Acrylic, Digital, etc..
After painting for many years, in our opinion it is more difficult to paint in PS than on a real canvas, and takes longer. But, wthout many years of experience painting with Oils and Acrylics, could not do as well in Photoshop. On a canvas, you can paint over mistakes to hide them. But must totally alter or redo the original in Photoshop, if you make a major mistake. On canvas, have never made a sketch first, just applied the paint, like Bob Ross and many others.

When Artists switch from using Oil or Acrylic Paint and other chemicals they help protect the environment. There are no obnoxious smells or chemical residue and discarded paint or cleaners to harm the earth. Another advantage, as we live and travel in an RV, we have only one easel, so don't have to switch off Palette's or take turns and we can both paint at the same time.

Our Goal with our Artwork: Remind people about the Beautiful creations or Blessings everywhere in Life.... We see the Creator, through HIS creations, which inspires our work. HE gave us talent to show HIS work so it may inspire you... We pray our work may take you to see Him, in ways you may not personally have the opportunity... Just feel Free to share our LINKs, with Family or Relatives and Inlaws or Outlaws, who may also enjoy them.

Yosemite Valley (yoh-SEM-i-tee) is a glacial valley in Yosemite National Park in the western Sierra Nevada mountains of California, carved out by the Merced River. The valley is about 8 miles long and up to a mile deep, surrounded by high granite summits such as Half Dome and El Capitan, and densely forested with pines. A multitude of streams including Tenaya, Illilouette and Bridalveil Creeks join in the valley, and flow out of the valley's mouth as the Merced River, which eventually flows to the Pacific Ocean. The valley is renowned for its natural beauty, and is widely regarded as the centerpiece of Yosemite National Park, attracting visitors from around the world.
