My Bio
I am a photographer as well as a performance artist and makeup artist. I use corel paintshop pro x3 for all my post production work for my pictures. I love to use long time exposure and movement both of the scene and my camera to create alot of my deviations effects like my painting with light series. I have been featured in galleries on cape cod and have performed for the last 20 years up and down the east coast as a performance artist female impersonator by the name of Polly Yourathane and am a member of the Hyannis Gay mens Chorus. I first picked up a camera about 7 years ago and am self taught. I work on several peices a week but I usualy spend one or two days on single edits and manipulations in post production to get some of my effects. All of my art is original and is My copywrited property please do not upload download use alter or in any other way steal under penalty of law and persicution. If you wish to use it please write me Im usualy Flexible and love colaborating with fellow artists.

Ok I am hoping that my fans watchers and friends will think about supporting your artist friends by buying their art. we work hard year long to bring you peices you can see, shre and yes download and most of the time we do not recieve payment for our art.

KNOW YOUR GENRE

0 min read
I am so so sick of going to brows art here on DA and people not nowing what genre their art belongs in.

Thank you so much for adding System's Core to your favourites! by the way, your username is awsome :D
Thank you ive been on all the best hardwood floors everywhere
I must say your photography work is unlike any I've seen before. Truly awesome stuff. :thumbsup:
Thank you I have alot of fun doing it. I do try to describe my prosses for others to try if you ever would like to know more about any of my peices i would be more than happy to share how I did it. the best part is when shooting its always random and its trying to se how i can make it fit what i want thats the fun part. Corel paintshop pro x-3 and pro are great for post production work as well as KBG which comes as a plug in them. thanks again
I vote for a video Tutorial :) Truly Unique!!
just get a dark place like a club that has fun lights moving set camera to long time exsposure and keep moving to the beat see what ya get to play with and edfit its that simple
