I'm a hobbyist who is kind of half way between a retoucher and a digital artist and who retouches photos only for Personality Imaging, my photographer site on here (63144). If your picture needs work you need to fix it, live with it, or hire someone else because I'm not touching it.

I'm on here just to network and exchange ideas. I don't make a dime at this and am not interested in promoting my brand. I'm not on facebook or instagram either, most of my work is too sexy, mature, and awesome for those sites. I have a personal site but only post family snapshots etc.

I add digital art only to my own photographs as a hobbyist and that's all. Check out my photos at Personality Imaging www.modelmayhem.com/63144 or /drpixel.

I venture into digital artistry but keep it so that it could be real, no transparent pixie wings and pixie dust here. Also, I always start with a photo of a model that I took with a camera, unlike some who start with a model photo taken from deviantart.com or some other internet site.

I generally don't give model credits on this site because some of the models may not look their best in the "BEFORE" shots and they probably don't want these shots showing up in their credited photos.

I appreciate all the help I have gotten from the video tutorials from Aaron Nace at phlearn.com and Nathaniel Dodson at tutvid.com.

I'm always looking for good online tutorials, royalty free stock images, overlays, custom brushes and retouching software, so please let me know if you see any. Also any helpful feedback and ideas are welcome! And you are welcome to be my friend on here without fear of me sending a price list (I don't have one) or anything.

If you want to share an idea or make sure that I won't touch your image you can contact me on here or on gmail at itmightbeart.
