\"copyright<\/a>I spent most of my work day dealing with other people’s project, so I was only able to get a few hours in on this.<\/p>\n

Today, I added dimension to the house and base color to the stone walkway.<\/p>\n

As you can see there is only a few more places that need attention, mainly the basket of apples and some bits of the old lady’s clothing.<\/p>\n

I did find the patterns available in the program to be mostly unsuitable for my needs as they are more geared to manga cartoons. I have to investigate to see if there is a way to create one’s own patters similar to the way it can be done in Photoshop or Illustrator.<\/p>\n

Most of my learning curve at this point is in find where tools are and how to get them to do what I want. From that point of view this program is very easy to learn to use (at least for someone familiar with other graphics programs.) I find the adjustments section of the program to be clunky and slow, but since my poor old dinosaur has only half the recommended RAM available, I will have to wait to see if the cluckiness is due to the low memory. Upgrading to a new MAC is somewhere in the distant future since the only reason I need to upgrade is to keep up with the new versions of software.<\/p>\n

My MAC may be a collector’s item, but my husband found a true old computer while cleaning out the deceased uncle’s house. An old Commodore circa 1984 still in the original box. Now that’s OLD! (In computer years anyway.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
