CASTLE by Martin Skowronski The bare bones sketch for this painting was done with a number 2HB pencil. The drawing was scanned into ArtEffect where the lines were cleaned up and color applied. The aquarelle effect was achieved by layering down short thick lines of paint which were then smoothed/smeared together using the airbrush and various configurations of the chalk brush. This is certainly the most exciting picture ever done with ArtEffect.

Children in Crisis The preliminary sketch of the child's face was done in colored pencil. This sketch was scanned into ArtEffect and was used as the basis for the two images. Various shapes of the crayon brush were employed using the the smear/smooth tools when necessary. By varying the levels of transparency a more natural watercolor effect was achieved for the anxious face. The angry face was achieved with "thicker" coloring and extensive use of the smear tool. MAKING LEMONADE The Art Effects smear tool was used extensively in the painting of, and integration of, the funnel cloud. The lemon was drawn and then saved as a transparent brush. It was stamped down in different configurations after adjustments with the brush tools. The glass was rendered in Lightwave and then saved as a brush for inclusion in the painting. Martin Skowronski

	"Sundown". A wonderful drawing of Martin Skowronski (US). Sunset This is a great example of Art Effects image manipulation abilities. The original photograph called Sundown.jpg was included with the ArtEffect1.0 archive. It depicts a sunset overlooking a body of water with a city silhouetted in the background. By cutting out sections of the photograph and using them as matte brushes the image was changed to look like a sunset over a rocky ocean beach.
