The Messier the Better

This is the first official post - welcome, and please have a seat. This site will be full of my art experiments, from watercolor painting, charcoal drawings, color pencil sketches, to photo editing. It's a reaction to the mentality that you have to be special to create art.... well let's see what we can cook up. Also, feel free to send me any suggestions or your own attempts at creation. That said, let's just jump into it, folks.

Original Image With that thought in mind, I added a few mountains, grass at the foreground and image of a moon and forests in the background, then changed the color tone to appear sepia like.  1st Edit. Later on after listening to the Discworld series by Sir Terry Pratchett, I decided to add The Great A'Tuin, who is a giant turtle that carries four elephants that have the discworld balanced on their backs. It took a lot of experimenting and failed images but at the end I got an image that I'm a bit pleased with. Great A'Tuin Discworld Series
