Create beauty - I have some fantastic news to share


How to create fonts with a wacom
Uploaded by artmama

Can you believe I have had over 10,000 views on Sclipo of my how to create fonts video (which I won my second wacom for) and my fantastic news is that the makers of my most very favourite graphic design software, Xara, are my supporters now as well. This means that I have been offered some more free software which is being mailed to me as I write. I am so excited and can hardly wait, the creative juices are already flowing!!!? I will be able to create all sorts of beautiful goodies for you all, and intend to do some more tutorials too.

So why do I love Xara so much? Apart from the fact that it came highly recommended by my amazing, quirky artist friend, Quentin you mean? It is just so user-friendly, and you can do so much for such a wide variety of media. As well as that, it is completely affordable, and incredible value for money, (unlike cs3 which is rubbish in comparison, and so highly priced because adobe does nothing about pirating, so actually makes it easy to get illegal copies of their software which buyers then have to cover the cost of).

Thanks so much to all the people who watched my videos, if it wasn't for you, I wouldn't have received this offer from the wonderful Xara. And your interest in my work really means a lot.

So, watch this space, there is more from me to come.
