The newest Project at MoKnowsPhotos.com is
PhotoShop Magic:
I've taken some photos made at the California State Railroad Museum and Railtown 1897 and applied some Artistic Filters to them. I call them, "Poor Man's Art," because you can buy any of the photos as an 8 x 10 inch print for only $30, including mailing. Just e-mail me your order to Carl@TrainWeb.com. Identify the photo(s) you want to purchase by using the image number under the photo. Please send a check for the total amount to: Carl Morrison, 325 Koch Avenue, Placentia, CA 92870. I have larger sizes available as well with mounting/matting or mounting/matting/framing. Just ask.
Railtown 1897, California Historic Park, Jamestown, California

My poor attempt at Plein Air Rough Pastels IMG_4371.jpg
Plein Air, a
French word, literally translates as 'open air', and is defined as
painting or drawing done outside, in the open air. The equivalent term
in Italian would be alfresco. These works were taken directly from
nature, and infused with a feeling of the open air. A relatively recent
practice, painting outdoors became an important dimension of the
landscape work of the Impressionists and painters of the Barbizon
school.
