SUMO Paint is an online image editor that feels alot like Photoshop and its free to use. The application includes layers with alpha adjustments, many brushes and shapes, multiple undos, copy paste functionality and the ability to save images to your computer. If you are needing light functionality of Photoshop then this is your tool at the right price, free.
In this digital age I found the following explanation by the artist to be necessary. “these are analogue images of the refraction patterns of a beam of light passing through various transparent objects (in this case a piece of textured glass). The image is captured directly on to 35mm film, no camera lens is used ( this is a photogram using film instead of photographic paper), the transparent object replaces the lens. Colour is introduced by placing specially prepared coloured filters directly in the light beam. This is an analogue image and has not been computer generated or colour treated. The colours you see are a faithful reproduction of those captured on film.”

Raymond completed a portrait series of various financial CEO’s that have been in the news lately. This one is of Richard Fuld, CEO of Lehman Brothers. Raymond took to the streets and exhibited his work outside the Lehman Brothers headquarters and select spots on Wall Street. There he allowed the public to include their message on the painting.
Here is a closer view of the Fuld painting where the signatures are visible.

Whew! I hate upgrades but this one went about as smooth as I could ask for. I really wanted to get on the latest system so that I could begin a new design. This one has been up for almost a year now and it is time to freshen it up a bit. The upgrade included a new backend for folks that have blogs here, a related posts feature to make it easier to browse through the work and a Community News section in the sidebar.
Please let me know if anything is wonky or if you just have a suggestion. Thanks!
