My Desktop. Brush on KolourPaint, 2014 |
Another mesh I have gotten myself into, remotely inspired by the ever so funny Hyperbole and a Half has been to pick up again a virtual painting brush.
Reasonably untalented at actually drawing something, I rescued my art grades in school by colouring and choosing colours. So you see, using a painting program is the perfect excuse – how is anyone supposed to draw well on a touchpad? – to be a child again, when MS Paint used to put me in a frenzy of filling shapes with punch-in-your-eye hues.

Now armed with KolourPaint I can disdain advanced graphics and photo programs in favor of the playful simplicity of poorly edited pictures, both for practical purposes..
This is what I understand under "infographics" |
and for artistic endeavors.
I no need no layers |
A recreational use of such a program has brought back the sweet taste of creating perfectly straight lines and filling them uniformly with bright colour.
See? |
Use that quickly turned into pseudo-ambitious drafts for bed sheet art:
and heart-inspired art.
