A long time GIMP lover

g017 · **Joined:** Jan 15, 2020 **Posts:** 20

Hello

My name is Gilles and I am a digital artist who makes drawings/paintings, photomanipulations, fractals, and now "zoobkas". Zoobka is a method I have invented to easily make with GIMP beautiful abstracts artworks with various cool effects like neon, plasma, smoke etc. I would love to tell you more about it, for example I have made a tutorial at Gimp-Forum_net but the system prevents me to use external links in my posts because I am a new user, and I don't know how to display more than 3 images per post. So, maybe later...

Edit: Now I am allowed to use external links in my posts. So here is the link for the Zoobka tutorial:
https://www.gimp-forum.net/Thread-Zoobka-A-technique-to-make-beautiful-material-effects

Here are 3 examples of my paintings made with GIMP:

Glad you are now also a member of GC.
You will find here other people who makes digital pantings.

About my appreciation of your outcomes, you may browse the thread of Nidhogg; in the last posts you'll find 3 "manipulations" by me of your posted creations.
