Hi Tony, No need for an art history lecture. I've got a degree in painting myself. Sounds like what you are trying to do will be pretty easy if you read the jitter tutorials and spend a little time learning. As I'm sure you already know, picking up a new medium takes some time and practice. Just don't get any molten wax on your laptop, it could be a tricky thing to clean up. ;) Cheers, Andrew B.
