I had a maternity shoot the other day and thought this one would look good as a virtual oil. This is a picture of the big sister who is 8 years old. The mom is due July 9th.

Thanks for the comments! Virtual Oil is really smudge painting done in Photoshop. From what I have heard, Painter is a much better program to use, but I don't have it so I use Photoshop.

Thanks again!

Nice work Tim ,, for smudge painting you cant do better than Photoshop , for actual digital painting Painter is the ticket although Photoshops brush engine is as capable as Painters just you need to create your own brushes , even with Painter I find you still end up in PS to finish final image tweaking .

Rod,

Is it difficult to learn Painter? I would like to give it a try, but if the learning curve is anywhere near that of Photoshop I don't think I would have the time.

Thanks Susi, I'm on the fence about Painter which means I will probably end up getting it :-).
