I love the myth of Clytie turning into a sunflower. Really beautiful work

I'm so impressed! You're the first person to ever recognize the origins of the image. I'm so pleased!! Glad you like.

You're welcome. As a little girl, tales of unreqited love always appealed to me more than reading 'And they lived happily ever after'. The Clytie story is really poingnant .

Whoa! Very elegant, great use of colors. The scan's a little too small though. You're the oposite of Elachrym when it comes to scanning your works, hehe.

I agree with you about the size. You can't really see some of the finer details. I'll have to increase the size for next time if I can figure that out. I'm not much of a computer person... heh.

Have you tried using photoshop when you scan? It's so easy to change the size in PS and also the size of the image file.

I have, but am not too good with graphics programs. Also, the scanner that I use belongs to my school's computer lab and is always getting disconnected from the computer anyway. It's so unreliable! I ought to buy a scanner for myself...but that does require money, which I don't have a lot of right now.

Awww, that sucks! You go to SAIC too right, don't you? I thought that school was loaded, they should have the most top of the line equipment. Well, I still use a 6 year old scanner which works just fine. Have you tried ebay, I'm sure you can get on there real cheap.

Ebay rocks, it's the greatest thing for art students.
