Hello Photoshop, my old friend . . .

It’s good to play with you again (yes, that darn song is stuck in my head.  The ukulele version).

Mixing old photos and a face cast of an older friend  – a way to tell corny (and in this case made-up) stories.  Tonight  I should dig out my little projector, and compare ‘real’ with Photoshop.  Hmmm.

By the bye, Steve Caplin’s How to Cheat in Photoshop still absolutely my favourite “how-to” guide. I borrowed this four times from the library before buying my own copy, and have since given copies to friends.

A while back I ran away from a twentymumble-year corporate career to be a feckless art student. Since then I've dirtied my hands with, metaphorically and/or literally, bronze and ceramic sculpture, photography, and digital and traditional illustration. Mask making was one discovery, dovetailing with my interests in teaching and performing improvised theatre.
