Product Stills - Liquitex Freestyle Paint Knives

 

  Captain's Back and with a New Post, been doing some Product Stills to press up the time, here we have the Liquitex Freestyle Paint Knives that I use for my Canvas-Art and I shot with my trusty Nikon D3000 and Edited with Photopea which is Free instead of Adobe Photoshop. You can see the Glare that comes from them and don't mind the first Photograph with the one short Paint Knife on the right, I know it looks Scratched, Should've Photoshopped that one or did it without it, that's my Mistake/Burden to bear and I Apologize for that one. When it comes to the Shorter Paint Knives, I feel like a Ninja when i'm in Possession of them, want to do a Self-Model Still of me as a Ninja holding, but need to Rent some Space in order to make it happen. Hell, I should be called "Captain" Dave Walker, Canvas-Art Ninja or Mural-Art Ninja(Although I haven't done any Mural-Art Yet.) But, in any event this is my 2nd post of 2022, more coming soon. Stay Safe, Stay Healthy and Stay Gold. . . Late.

Captain's Back & with a New Name

 

    The Captain has returned and with a New name and same purpose. . . To spread the word of Captain's Cove: Detroit. It's been a year since I posted anything here on the blog, but now I have returned to post on the blog. My New Year's Resolution for 2022 and Beyond is less planning and more doing when it comes to Canvas-Art, Photo-Art and soon Video-Art Content for YouTube, even though I won't be on Social Media too much and too often. Speaking of Social Media, there will be some changes for FaceBook, Twitter, Pintrest & Instagram. TikTok coming soon in the future as well as a Future Website, so it's going to take some time and work to Bare Fruit. These 2 Images represent me as a Canvas & Photo Artist spreading the word and getting my name out to Detroit as well as the areas that surround it in a Positive matter. Your thinking, why come up with the name "Captain's Cove" ?  The idea came when I 1st visited Kummba's Cove Art Gallery when I was with the Rogue Bard Media LLC Crew back in 2011, when I did Poetry for Nommo, did content there at times, the Cove was my home away from home and I was fascinated by the people I met whom were and still like a 2nd family to me and the Art that was in place. . . Unfortunately the Cove was shutdown in 2013 or 2014. Kummba's Cove will always be a special place in my heart and so I decided to name my new Media Gallery & Production "Captain's Cove: Detroit". Even though I'll be doing Content of my own, working with Rogue Bard more as well hopefully working with CyberStars: Detroit and if you don't know what CyberStars is, it's a Media Production with Skits and Shorts, it is created by my friend and FedEX Work-Brother, David Ragin who is also a musician . Do not forget to follow him on Social Media. These harsh times with this Nightmarish and Deadly Pandemic curse known as COVID-19 and the restrictions has gotten the best of us with people getting sick and testing positve and dying from this cursed evil, but we can't let it take control of our lives physically and mentally, we still have to Mask-Up and stay true to the 4 to 6ft rule. So, let's Stay Safe, Stay Healthly and Stay Gold.

It's Been Forever.

            This is your Captain, it's been forever since I've posted a Blog Update. . . Unfortunately, I've been focusing on Searching & Gaining Employment Opportuunites and Putting Effort into my Canvas Paintings, so future Buyers and Gallery Owners would Purchase my  work or set them in a Gallery, once again more Happy Mistakes. Now i'm facing issue with my HP Pavilion Tower where I edit my work with Photoshop Premiere. Unfortunately I've made a little mistake by turning it off while loading. Now Microsoft Edge is gone along with my screensaver of Liquitex Paint, trying to delete some of the stuff (Photos & Videos), but Chrome, AVG Browser & Firefox automatically closes &Webroot Pop-Ups & Scans every 5 Minutes. I've written everything that's going down with my desktop and need to be taken to Geek Squad soon enough. So I won't posting my work, as well as Downloading or Saving for a while, until things are figured out and this ordeal is nipped in the bud. But I will be taking photographs on my Phone. I Apologize for being gone on the blog for a long, i'm very sorry. I promise i'll return with new post with edited Camera Still & Canvas-Art real soon. . . Thank you and God Bless.

Long Hiatus/Happy 4th of July.

     The Captain is back everyone after a one month hiatus. I was mourning over the loss of my grandmother. She lived a full life and now she is with my grandfather in the heavens. Anywho, want to wish you all a safe Happy 4th of July weekend and more Stills and Canvas Art coming soon.
