SPA Dance


Created with photos I took of a friend of mine. She's a dancer, and, during one of those lovely sudden summer downpours, ran into the street and danced joyously in the rain.

Here's another piece I did with the same photos.

Three Muses Challenge- Victorian Elegance


I was looking for inspiration among the Victorian artists when I came upon Miss Beatrix Potter and her wonderful little friends.

All images found on Google.

Alphabet Inspired-N is for Nocturnal


Created mostly with gradients and brushes. Wisteria branches from Dover. Filters and blending modes applied.

Take a Word-Umbrella


Bunnie has been noodling around in the April Showers with his dashing new umbrella.

The original B/W photo is mine, and Bunnie lent his head. The umbrella was found on Google and the rest is brushes, filters and layer styles.

SPA Mothers




SPA's challenge this week is Mothers. I'm submitting two pieces this week--the first is a postcard made for the challenge. How proud this young mother is of her beautiful baby.

The second was made for the Digital Whisper 100 Themes Challenge, Motherhood.
It's called "everyone has a mother."

Digital Montage Studios Challenge #6--Colorize me!


This challenge was to colorize this beatuiful black and white photo. I added a frame from Joessistah at T4L and a photoshop brush.
I used gradients to colorize and the Luminosity mode and Watercolor filter to create the texture.
