What is the new video game that looks like you are in a Japanese painting?

Wednesday, August 12th, 2009

I don’t know if it’s out yet or not, but it’s a game that looks like some sort of Japanese water color painting and it’s the first of its kind. I want to get it for my fiancee but I don’t know the name. Thank you!

Friday, August 7th, 2009

When neighbors build fences, who’s responsible for painting them?

Tuesday, May 19th, 2009

Here’s the history. Years ago our next-door neighbor built a fence around their yard — all four sides. Then the people who owned our house at the time built a fence around their (our) yard, only fencing on three sides because they could hook onto the existing fence on the fourth side. Then we bought the house and moved in.

Now, all the fences need to be painted. Who is responsible for painting what fence? Do we all just paint the parts that we (or the people who lived here before) built? Or do we each paint the side of the fence between us that faces us?

The fences are similar in style and color but not identical.

How can I outline my finished painting?

Wednesday, May 6th, 2009

I have just finished a painting of Ariel & Flounder with acrylic paint on canvas, and while I like how it looks with out outlines, I would rather give it an outline.

Can I just outline it with a sharpie or something, or even pencil, or will it ruin the paint somehow?
