Very much enjoying playing with Rebelle 7 Digital Painting software. I started with a basic ball study and the oil brushes. I love having a texture and grain to work against. This is very much like painting with real paint. Not missing the smell of turps.

Most of the work was done with a simple flat brush and lots of playing with the mixing palete. This is probably the killer feature for me – being able to mix colors and tones and gradient shades myself.

There has been a bit of a learning curve and some of the windowing features are a bit clunky but it’s a totally enjoyable experience to paint with and made me excited to work again. I cannot wait to get into the Watercolor set.
