This is another one I started from a photo taken by my daughter’s friend, Heather Tiffany. She took this on the same trip to Toronto that she took the picture I used in “Heather’s Toronto“. Most of the stuff I got using AI (kids, teddy bears, chess game). The planes and flamingos were mine as […]

This one was a bit out of my comfort zone. I’ve been looking at the artwork of Billa Bozem who passed away about a year ago. Billa could make things out of parts of other pictures that had nothing to do with what was being created. For instance, she could make a hat out of

I went on a quick trip to the Texas coast this weekend and although I didn’t make it to the beach, I could smell the salt air everywhere. So of course when I got back and wanted to do something about the Gulf. This is a photo I took several years ago on Padre Island,

I’m finally back. First a little health update. I have had 3 eye surgeries in the last 6-8 months. One was very major…a torn retina. That one I was lucky and didn’t lose my sight. It took me several months to recover from and was not able to see well enough to create anything. Even

It’s been a stressful couple of days. Monday morning I woke up and was seeing a shadow in the upper right corner of my left eye. Since this was the eye I had cataract surgery in August, I called the doctor and got in for an appt. on Wednesday morning. By that time the shadow
–Hi! Welcome to Week 29 of Project 52! This week I played a little with combining AI with non-AI. The Samurai and the base background I did with AI. I used some colored incense smoke pictures I took MANY years ago to fill in both in front and behind. I drew in the lightning and

–Welcome to Week 28! This is a special one. I did my first commission work! It was a piece that a friend of mine from high school wanted for her daughter. There is quite a bit of symbolism here that I am not going to discuss because it’s not my story to tell. That being

We made it past the halfway point! Welcome to week 27! This week’s composition is a hot mess, but it’s supposed to be. I have been having trouble coming up with something creative this week because my mind has looked like this poor young lady. There are two main pictures here: 1. the young lady,

Welcome to the halfway point of Project 52…at least I think it’s the halfway point, but math are hard! Hahaha. This week is a composite called “Ravens And Other Flying Machines” and I have to admit, it isn’t one of my favorites. I initially created a different version of it but I was using a

–Welcome to week 25! This week I used an old pic I had of a little town in the Alps and paired that with an old technique I learned several years ago to make it look like a watercolor. A few days after I made this image, I thought it might be neat to put
