Katie

This is Katie. Katie was my muse for the day. I've been wanting ot shoot pictures in the wheat field for the past two months, and haven't been able to get anyone to accomodate me. Katie kind of obliged her mom and I. She didn't want to stand still because the wheat was poking her, and she was afraid of the unknown. So we just kept shooting photos until she ran out of the wheat.

Jackie and I were playing around with her set of Florabella actions and this is one of them added to the photo along with a texture for the edges.

Thanks Katie for being our model for the day.

Sophia

My art of choice lately is photography and Photoshop editing. While I'd love to find time to get back to my studio, it seems that all I've had any time for over the past two months is family outings.

This is Sophia...she is my GREAT niece and is about to turn one. She is a doll as you can see. She will let me take as many photos as I'd like of her, and if no one else were around...I think I could go on forever. Such a beautiful subject.

I'm starting to get a handle on using Photoshop CS4...and have learned some new techniques thanks to Gale, Amelia & Jackie. I just need to continue to play with it every night. Although my schedule is about to get even crazier, as I've agreed to Assistant Direct a community production of "Steel Magnolias". Am I crazy? You betcha!

Hope you're all doing well...I'm sorry it's been so long since I posted anything.
