HOT ON STYLELIST HOME:

digital cowboy artOne of the things I most enjoy about my computer is the creative potential it offers to me. Being that I'm a semi-accomplished artist, my computer's video card has become an extension of my personality. In that regard, my Paint Shop Pro (PSP) program has opened up illustration capabilities to me that would have otherwise gone unrealized.

Recently, I used PSP to make a cartoon out of myself. I think the results I produced would make Stan Lee proud. The pictures I have included outline the basic steps of the process. You'll notice that the end result is just a bit idealistic. You can make many desired improvements upon your subject when you transform it into digital form. I believe that's one of the things that I most enjoy about digital editing.
