One afternoon while doodling around with a wacom stylus tablet and my laptop I created this image. I saw a similar image in a old Bob Ross Book (you know, the white guy with the afro that painted "happy trees" on Saturdays on PBS). I saw this image in the book and tried to follow the same techniques, but with Corel Painter. For those of you who are artists and have not experienced Corel Painter, be careful, you might never go back to traditional paints again.
I was pleased with the results if I do say so myself so I created a print of it on canvas at and sent one to my mother for her birthday..
I am thinking of painting some more from that book.
God bless Bob Ross for being an inspiration. May he rest in peace.
