Add teaching to your unbelievable talents -- art, music, and teaching..a rare combination of extra-ordinary abilities.

I really found the music to be perfect for the tutorial. Can't wait for it to be available on itunes.

[Gnoumyland]

Je suis amoureux ...

[MariatheSailor]

your so pretty!

[Soerirukz]

you deserve x12 subscribers than the ones you actually have steph ; u ,

[itseasy2hack]

@Soerirukz I think if steph painted some youtube celebrities and sent it to them she might get a bunch of free subscribers through being featured in other popular youtube channels :D Especially with her unique addition of her music composition. Cheap but effective.... Gogogo! If you wanted to be cheeky and aim straight for the top of youtube you could try contacting a group like kurthugoschneider and produce something featuring their whole crew. Best of luck :D

[CuteCinnamorll]

oh my gosh you are so pretty i wish that was a pretty as you

[Mrthestyle1]

for a soft dreamy effect do evrything to 0:43 but instead of overlay is soft light :), chhos the opacity yourself

[armondikov]

@Mrthestyle1 "Screen" is another good one for the overexposed and dreamy effect, but it depends on the image. I find darker images work better with soft light, lighter ones with screen or overlay.

[TheMufasaJones]

Wow, you're very pretty :) great job, the music is beautiful.

[HeyoChris]

if this is an easy tutorial, i'm scared to see what a hard one is...

[CookieCutterr]

where can i find the Maj thingy ?

[itseasy2hack]

I love artists that delve into lots of mediums, especially both music and fine art, that is the mark of a true artist.

[imcurious75]

is that you in the picture?

[StephanieValentin]

@imcurious75 Yes, it' me.

[Hiraghm]

@StephanieValentin

You're very pretty, you know.

(Just in case nobody has mentioned it, yet).

[Hiraghm]

Maybe you can help me. I've tried using several drawing tablets, even a tablet computer (Toshiba M200), and I can't seem to get the brush pressure to work right. Mostly, I use Photoshop CS4.

Either the lines are too thick, or too thin (or don't draw at all). Or, the thickness/darkness increases a lot or decreases a lot with very very little change in pressure.

Can you give me any advice on this? It's very frustrating :(

[StephanieValentin]

@Hiraghm Thanks ;-) If you go on my website in tutorial (text) "Photoshop Basics" you can see the option bar and the (6) indicates where you can change the pressure. Have you tried it before ?

[SwimmersGetWet]

@StephanieValentin That's YOU? You are beautiful!!!!!!!! How old are you? (Only if you want to tell)

[kristelleS2]

@StephanieValentin Youre so beautiful! ^-^ great tutorial.

[imcurious75]

@StephanieValentin Wow, you're beautiful.

[wrathe73]

@StephanieValentin You are so amazingly beautiful..Your artwork, your music. You are absolutely amazing. I become in a trance any video you are present in, Please keep gracing us with your many talents and helpful videos. I look forward to everyone of them.

[StephanieValentin]

@wrathe73 Thank you very much, I'm very touched ;-)

[xBRoyalx]

Hi Stephanie, love your work. its inspired me to get a intuos 4 and im creating images ive never dreamed of... also would it be possible for you to send me the .wav file of this song to do a remix? and if not i understand. anyways keep expanding the mind of us artists. thank you

[StephanieValentin]

@xBRoyalx Thanks a lot, I'm happy for you ! Send me your mail in a message for the song ;-)

[AriaMeiGhalili]

Oh my gosh. Stephanie you are just so extremely beautiful! <3

[HABOPP]

Great effect!. But aren't most of these effects different with other file sizes?

[StephanieValentin]

@HABOPP Thanks ! You have just to adjust the amount for the gaussian blur or you can redefine the size of the file before.

[MiriahLovesCookies]

Do you have Adobe Photoshop cs5 extended?

[StephanieValentin]

@MiriahLovesCookies I have CS4

[MiriahLovesCookies]

@StephanieValentin you should seriously consider upgrading to cs5 it's great!

side note, your art is absolutely beautiful!

[StephanieValentin]

@MiriahLovesCookies Yes, I think I will upgrade as soon as possible ;-) Thanks !

[ethanashton]

Btw, what drawingprogram do you use?

[MrLinuxxon]

@ForeverMinexoxo Photoshop

[StephanieValentin]

@ForeverMinexoxo Thanks a lot ! I use adobe Photoshop, I don't know if it possible with Gimp (free)

[Dummweltschutz]

@StephanieValentin Gimp doesn't work that well, cuz the pressure-sensibility is very bad

[HamsturG]
