Color in art prints create pleasing finished product
Treework – digital painting – circa – 1998 – Dan Beck
When I first starting creating digital paintings, I didn’t know very much about the program I was using.
I didn’t know I could adjust the dimensions to create a landscape or adjust the dimensions to have more or less pixels.
I didn’t even know how to adjust the colors in much of my palette. Less can sometimes be more – limits can be valuable for being creative.
In fact, I find it remarkable at how good these originally formatted pieces look enlarged to fit the 13×19" size watercolor paper which is used at Outhouse Studios.
This particular piece has some really remarkable color in it. The creativity in manipulating a stock palette still pleases me and despite limited offerings of art print sizes – this piece still works.
The colors are even better in person and for sure the "tree work"s.

I don’t use this – and probably never would – but it looks like a nice tool for someone with little color knowledge
