Artist's Comments

Something a little different from me - my second ever photo manipulation. I was feeling restless and needed some time out from the tarot illustration repaint I am currently working on, but wanted to do something creative. Because I have been exploring the photographic side of my creativity of late, I decided that mayhap it was time to start exploring the manipulation side as well.

And so, this is it ... my second ever manip and while there are probably flaws that everyone can see, I'm quite chuffed with my fledgeling efforts.

Photo manipulations created by me are not for commercial purposes/resale at this time. I've have a lot of practising to do before I feel I'm good enough to consider offering prints of my work.

I think it's very, very nice for being your second manip ever. Personally I suck at it, and I can't understand how you can do so well on so few tries. Nice job!

Gorgeous! The highlighted edges are almost like an inverse Art Nouveau style - in description you'd expect it to seperate the picture but it actually adds to the magic and completeness!

If life gives you lemons - ask if they are unwaxed and then make risotto - at least you won't be facing life on an empty stomach...:D

I like to make icons for Livejournal and Insanejournal - would it be alright to icon some of your art, (and, of course, give credit, and link back to your site)

Thank you! and again, very lovely work!
