@welshpixie Nice place :) makes me want to see the sea again !
@welshpixie darktable is neat too, I have a linux only pc, so it makes a great usable alternative
More blocking-in with chalk #charcoal light study for a new #oilpainting #portrait. I left the easel unattended for quite some time, it is good to be back at it again :-) #art #painting
Printing #linocut #postcards full steam ahead ! My #printmaking workflow is good now, I have proper registration, reasonable drying times, a paper cutter that works fast and clean. Next step will be to go to book shops and convince them to take some... Setting up my online store soon too 🐾
@inso pour y voir plus clair sur le sujet, le cours des Mines de Jean Marc Jancovici est disponible sur youtube. On aime ou on aime pas le bonhomme, on aime on on aime pas les faits, mais voila, ca pique , et apres on est mieux armé pour penser la suite !

@silverseams one trick I found useful at times, to take a picture of a moslty black drawing on a white background, is to use the "back light" automatic setting of a smartphone, so it goes for information in the low values. The really working way I found is to use a photograph's physical calibration 50 % grey card under the same lighting to set my smartphone exposure. It sounds cumbersome but it really helps for such extreme situations as your black dragons on clear background :)
Asking the Mastodon community : What would be the correct way to toot in multiple languages without flooding followers / timelines ? Use one account per language ? Use language tags ? Include translations within each toot ? ( like this )
Quelle serait la bonne methode pour poueter dans plusieurs langues sans inonder les abonnés / les timelines ? Utiliser un compte par langue ? Utiliser des tags de langues ? Inclure la traduction dans chaque pouet ? ( comme ici )

@silverseams Even harder when you don't have a camera that produces high dynamic range images, and rhe software and knowledge to get information for these darks. My camera tries to even all values across the tiny 8 bits per channel space that jpg offers, resulting in very poor nuances in blacks. You did very well for these by the way
Painters in the Gardens. I was invited to hang my paintings for an exhibition in my village . Nice weather, nice people, nice afternoon #art #painting #exhibition #garden

@selfsame I really love those clay works.
@loringpress thank you for the neat tip !! I'm using a grey lino that has little contrast between the surface and inside, so it will be very useful. Here is a great one in return : in order not to waste printing ink after a session, scrape it off your glass pane , put it in a jar and store in the freezer. I have been doing it for years with oil paints and I figured out it works for oil printing inks too :-D
@anaisfae whatever the name, I love this drawing !
@ClipsoCallipso The colors on this fish ! It has to be what vibrancy means
