Playing with Petroglyphs

I got some new stamps from After Midnight

They are some really nifty petroglyph style images. I was playing around with a shared background image from the amstamps yahoo group and came up with this.

I have so much fun creating settings to photograph stuff in my studio.

Hawk

Spotted a hawk at the edge of the parking lot at the local mall today. The photos I got were...um...not good.
I played with one in Photoshop and got an image reminiscent of the old Audubon style prints.

I'm pretty happy with this. :)

Background swap

We've been having fun on the After Midnight yahoo group

We've been scanning some of our handmade backgrounds and uploading them to share.
I used a print out of a marbled background done by Phyllis and added one of my favorite Cory Celaya stamps

I've been doing a lot more art journaling since I took a wonderfully fun class with Jessica at Cre8it

digitally altering photos

I have been designing some book covers for a website called Anthology Builder

I really liked the mood and atmosphere of this image.

A few filters and adjustments and it looks quite acceptable for a book cover design.

digital image

Playing around in Photoshop with some images....
wanted to see if I could upload hi res pics here.
hmmm...Seems to work...

Pussy Willow

Spring has sprung

Fantasy Film

Playing with Fantasy Film again. Love this stuff!
See a how-to at After Midnight

I have done the switch plates in the room where I have my carnival glass collection displayed with this technique.
Might be just a "bit" gaudy (sarcasm) for most people- but works for this particular setting. ;)

Firejam

I love fire! Going to Firejam was wonderful


The drumming was awesome.

I used my Flip video to capture some of the action and sound
I put some clips up on Youtube.

Visions of spring

I've been playing around with my crystal ball.
It makes an interesting macro lens. ;)

Lea Everse Gallery

I just finished putting up a gallery page for Lea Everse at After Midnight

I love her artwork and her calligraphy is to die for. *sigh*
I think I'm going to have to ask her to let me use the name from the card she sent me on my business cards.
