Took my picture to PS and worked on it there. Think maybe I can figure out how to do something similar in Gimp, now.
This is Petrus.
Petrus is a gargoyle. He currently lives on the counter in my kitchen. The idea was to have him look more realistic, with the background and apple somewhat cartoon-ish. I tried, anyway. Some touch up on the background, as well.
And then...
Well, it made me laugh. I played around with the highlights and shadowing. I like it. Might not be cool, but it's different.
And better than the other option for the day, doodles from my morning staff meeting...

I like it. Does Petrus have a certain meaning (aside from being a gargoyle)?
The name? Not really, other than the link between Petrus and Peter (and stone, from there). I like gargoyles. He's one of three this size, and several smaller ones I own. The idea of stone protectors adorning buildings fascinates me, and I think their horrific expressions are charming.
Keep at it, Maven. Learning is great! It keeps the cobwebs out. I think you're making progress. The apple is particularly nice.
