Artist Reply: LOL! Thank you Gregory! I will have to squeeze some time in soon to do some more designs. These get tricky, but I like the challenge of creating them. I ususally use multiple software and subjects and effects to make one. I ususally start with a color, reflective element, and start manipulating. Some of my digital paintings catch my eye and spark off new design ideas. This field of design interest I will enjoy seeing develop as software also devleops. They are fun to work on, I've some new software and effects to learn to use, so lots more to come.

Artist Reply: Thank you Blue Doll! I really appreaciate your comments. Glad this was was one you liked.

Artist Reply: Thank you Thea! Your work inspires me so much!

Artist Reply: Thank you Emily! I am really enjoying doing these creations. I love learning and trying new ideas. I'm just getting started. LOL! Lord, help me if I take time to read the software manuals and use the tutorials! I am impatient to do hands on, not read. Works so far, I'd say.

Artist Reply: Thank you Michael. So much in faith and the world is unknown. I think it should be, as if we all understood it all, there would be less strength ones faith. Mircales are out there, I've had several in my life. Sometimes it spills out into my work, like this one. Always wanting to express the joy in life for the most part. I love life, all the bits of it, good and bad. A simple act of kindness, a flower or small work of nature, puts the world back into rights for me. I take nothing for granted, having grown up with so little but faith, family, and love. That's a treasure that is priceless.

Artist Reply: Thank you Cynthia! Lack of sleep sometimes brings out unexpected ideas and results! I was bored so began experimenting. I seem to do best at night, when the house is quiet and my darn brain is lite up like a Christmas tree with ideas. I have to take mdes to sleep at night, but they dont always work. So, I work to do someting quiet and productive. This one I worked on for an hour. Not bad.

Artist Reply: Thank you Biance! What a tree topper the center cross would be!

Artist Reply: Thank you Pat! I have a salt rock crystal carved cross I got at a Polish mine fro one of the miners. I was thinking how cool it is and looks like crystal, and went off to find ways to design some.
