Still Life Project In Progress

[becky2]

I am working on a still life that was one of the excersizes in the gallery. I am using acrylic on canvas sheets. I used rulers to make a bowl, a glass bottle and a plate, I think the objects are two close together. I would like to put it up for critique. How do I do this?

It is best to make responses by emailing me

How do I prepare an image to upload to this thread? I need a scanner correct. I looked into the price of one yesterday. I am getting one because I want to go to art school to get a BA in Graphic Design or something having to do with computers. I am just finishing undergrad AA degree in teaching and found it was not the direction I wish to go. It made me exhausted and I was too stressed because I had too much going on. I have a disability physical movement and
dexterity are difficult. You can paint and do computer sitting down. I think the less physical i am while working I am beter of. I am able to walk but because of problems with balence it is better that a sit. I have the metal compasity to do anything but physicaly there are major safty limitations

There are a couple of ways to prepare an image to be uploaded to this site.

1. Take a photograph and have it put on a disk or
2. Scan a photograph or
3. Take a photograph with a digital camera

After you do one of the above, you will need to resize your image. For this you will need photo edit software. If you have a scanner, photo edit software will come with it. If not, do a search and find some on the internet....some you will find are free.

4. Resize your image to 500w X 600w or less and save as a jpg or gif file.

5. upload to the system using the upload button at the top of the main page, or upload using the attachment feature inside a message screen.

6. Still have problems? Re read the instructions that Cindy talked about and gave you a link. I think this will answer all of your questions, but if not.... let us know.

Good Luck and welcome to WetCanvas!

Hi Becky, such a nice name... Thanks to Illis I don't have to answere you because she has said it all and good advice it is too. I prefer to use a digital camera myself as I get better results. I have a scanner but don't use it much. Welcome to WC and keep in touch. Let us know how you get on. Happy New Year


Thanks Illis, Happy New Year

I now know how to use the image uploader to upload images from my computer. I uploaded the image in the animal and wildlife forum with the help of arlene. It is a copyright free image so no worries please. It was my first time doing it so i just picked a place at radom. I wanted the members to use the image to create a project. I wanted to do it as a project for the members. How do I put the image there. I will be getting a scanner soon to upload my art pieces so you can see them
