New Year


The beginning of a new year! I have decided on my personal study process for the year but am not decided on how I want to proceed with the artistic ideas. One thing that I am planning to do is to continue to work with this blog and to enter pictures. Uploading pictures will be my greatest challenge because I do not like taking pictures!

This is an image that I was playing with in Paint Shop ProX. I made the image into a brush which I then beveled and layered. I have a love for chickens. I think it must be in my DNA because I've never personally owned chickens. My great-grandmother raised prize winning Wyandotts for many years and I'm thinking that it must be a latent gene which resurfaced in me. I never knew either my great-grandmother or her chickens. They were all long gone before I came along. It is indeed, refreshing to think that there are things that came before me!

As I'm typing this, I'm suddenly getting ideas for further posts. Hurrah, perhaps the muse has settled and I will begin to use this lovely bit of cyberspace landscape reserved just for this Prairie Girl!
