I like to paint, it's relaxing in a way. What I tend to do is get to a critical point in the work and scan it. This way, if I make a balls of it I can go back and do it again with knowledge gained. The problem comes when the pc misbehaves, like it is today..It can't see the scanner and I've tried just about everything. 'Just copy it I hear you say.' Not a bad idea, but sometimes I like to cheat (sorry, use a different medium) and add a difficult bit using the art software on the computer myself.
I have battled with myself whether this is truly cheating and have convinced myself that it isn't. New materials that were more easy to use or gave better results have gained popularity throughout history and the computer is a modern extension of that, because you still need certain skills to get it to work.
Beginning to think I'm going to be on with this all day, but we shall see.
