A very Happy New Year from everyone at the Official Corel Painter Magazine! We’ll kick off 2009 with the first Pic of the Week this year. Some really wonderful artwork has been submitted to the site over the Christmas period, but what really caught my eye this morning were Victor Lunn-Rockliffe’s cartoons on the subject of Painter, in particular this one. Jousting shows the differences, similarities and tensions between traditional real media and digital art in an appealing, whimsical way. The most obvious part of the image is the two painted knights jousting, but this cartoon is full of little rewards for those who look at it for a while - I particularly like the vacuum-like Image Hose and the battering ram paintbrush! Take a look at some of Victor’s other cartoons, like When Redo Becomes Nodo for more cheerful comedy commentaries on the life of a Painter artist.
