Some night-time activities with PICASA....

All awake at 01:25 AM on Saturday morning. What to do? Play with PICASA, of course!

First the original - a pencil scetch of Pohjoisranta, Helsinki, Finland, 6th May 2004. 

Then the first modification: some shades of old drawings...

 

Second...blue sky...

Third: some more tones...

PICASA is very practical tool, indeed.

Suomenlinna, Finland, with two techniques.

I love Suomenlinna Fortress, situated on islands in front of Helsinki, Finland! Here are two versions, drawn on the very same place on the first island. Uppermost was drawn with ordinary pencil (I prefer HB), the lower with calligraphy felt-tip pens (I apply sizes from 1 to 3 mm). I had certain difficulties with the clouds in upper drawing - today I may draw them differently. I like to add some birds - thank you for the tip, Henrik Tikkanen!
