Another Wreath

5/3/20

    Yes. It’s a bit out of season, especially since it’s supposed to hit 71˚ later this afternoon. My neighbor is doing yard work shirtless. Nice view, but . . . I’m still in long sleeves with a light fleece jacket. 

    I’m hoping to do next year’s calendar with wreaths and unusual houses. I should have 6 or 7 done by now, but, only 3 so far. I’ve been learning some new things and keeping busy with Adobe’s 9-days challenges.  Theres’s a new Photoshop one every two weeks, and just recently they’ve be doing Illustrator on the same schedule. I see that last week, they started one for Premier Pro. That’s two images each day to complete, and if I start with PP — I’ll get even farther behind. PS goes easily for me. I know that program well enough to be leading the challenges ;-) but, I struggle with AI (Illustrator). The short cuts for similar tools in Ai are way different then PS. I am getting faster (better?) with practice, though. Thank goodness. I’m going to try and catch up this afternoon??    

    The background in the image above is several Adobe Paper Texture Pro papers and a wood texture from Bittbox, all with different blending modes. The igloo is from PixelSquid, and the wreath is from Pixabay.

    Time to get back to work. Take care and stay well.
