This image was created in Corel
Painter by importing the "colorless" Photoshop image below. I "selected" for areas of similar light(shades of gray) and then used Corel Painter watercolors and bushes to paint the selected areas. One problem that I encountered when I enlarged the image was the loss of"sharpness". I think all the selecting and importing cost me some of the "prickly -ness" of the Devil's club - which, after all, is its most endearing quality. I was hoping to play the "sharpness" of the thorns off against the "softness" of the water colors - but it didn't quite work in a larger format.
