Dotty Chicken

Created using markers and pen. Skip is using some of my chicken drawings for a video. Will post as soon as he gets it completed.

Challenge word "Nook"

This multimedia picture represents my interpretation of the word "Nook" in a recent challenge. It was created using a combination of acrylic, water color, pen and pencil. Computer technology- PhotoShop - was used to make the background. I painted the leaves on another sheet of paper then cut them out to place where I wante them in the picture. I am not adept in PhotoShop, but like everything else, will get used to it in time.

Altered

Altered refers to a change: to make changes to something or somebody, or be changed or become different. Modify, adjust, vary, amend, revise, rework, correct. Things are always changing but sometimes the change has been initiated specifically for a reason. The pictures in my mind, my countenance, seeing the possibilities others don't seem to get.

This is my journey, but I welcome you to join me. Any suggestions are appreciated. Please forgive me in advance for any ramblings, but then, isn't that wast blogs are for.

Enjoy the altered art!
