Sunshiny Disposition
Playing
The multiple image thing was fun yesterday, and I once again have a functioning scanner, so today I played with this cartoony sketch, adding layers of color, texture, and handmade stamps.
Warhol Wasn’t Here
Rules Are Meant to Ignore
I got this email today from Deke.com about how to get a Warhol-esque image in Photoshop. It intrigued me, so I thought that I would try it. The problem with that is that I frequently ignore rules, or instructions, or whatever. Such was the case with this. I totally did not read the instructions at all, until after I was done. Then I said, outloud, ” Ooops, I didn’t do that.” I, in fact did not do anything that had been suggested. Oh well, I had fun doing these bright, non-Warhol, non-portraits. I guess that’s all that matters. Right?
Time for Tea
Peace Time
This image started out as a photo of a watercolor I did several years ago (For sale on Etsy), which I built upon in Photoshop, and then added texture layers and other treatments. One of the things about the image a day project is that I get to play more in Photoshop, and I am really enjoying that. Another thing is that I am creating many textures and brushes from scratch (this one was not one of those, however). There is so very much to be done with those. Finally, of course, I love my tea! And even more, I love peace. In. My. Heart. In. My. World. TEA. PEACE.
The Moon of Peace
Bamboo Shadows
I have often thought that we hold the reality of peace in our hearts. I read once that there were those in the tribe that were considered the Peace keeper, their sole job being to hold peace in thier heart for the rest of the tribe, no matter what the circumstance. I am a peace keeper. It is my job to hold peace in my heart for all, no matter what the circumstance. I think each of us can help with that job. All directions meet at the cross roads of peace.
Memories of Bear
Crazy Two-Legged
I first danced with the bear when I was 12 or so. Calling in the wind, before we danced, it swirled around us. All was connnected, all is connected. How is it that we have gone so far astray?
Winters Clouds
Springs Awakening
I have been steeped in the process these days of re-awakening to my highest potential self. This bumpy winters end has been a clear reminder of my roots and where I can find the fodder of my sustenance. I created this image last night.
