Whewww, I’ve Finished Writing Two New Courses!

July 26th, 2008 Hillary Posted in LVS General, Personal | 2 Comments »

Just to let you all know that it’s been a busy summer for me as I will be teaching two new courses at LVS: Introduction to PhotoImpact X3 and Astrological Card Reading. Similarity? I think NOT! I will probably have a blog for the course(s) separate from this one, but you “artistes” out there who deal with right-brain activities might be interested.

Astrological Card Reading is a fun and informative way to read cards using a plain deck of cards and, for some reason, “it WORKS”!

I’ve found that Corel’s PhotoImpact gives the best “bang for the buck” (and LVS gives a discount on the software). I used PI exclusively for my digital art and still use it when I nab a student’s painting to add a tetch of this or that to illustrate more clearly my critique. It’s less than $100 and also is bundled with Corel’s Media One and Painter Essentials 3 (a light version of Painter). Professional photographers will love it for the ease of use in “tweaking” their photographic masterpieces.

Humbly yours,
Hillary

    Hi Carol,

    I’m delighted you stopped by! Good luck with your traditional painting and using oils — my favorite painting medium!

    :) Hillary
