Kimarie Chartier here- 43. I live in Canyon Country /Newhall area , Southern California. I have always been an artist . I started drawing at age two. My Mother said when I was a child I always had something to draw with in hand and I would cry when the paper ran out (LOL) ..I went to art school for a short while and have taught art to elementry school kids. I have done many oil paintings , pastels and watercolors , but recently , have been intrigued with digital photography and computer photo art in paint shop pro. now, I mainly work in Paint shop pro 7 and 11. I now also just beginning to work in ADobe photoshop cs2 ! I also am a full time Mom with three girls ( who are all over my gallery) Annie 16, Janel 13, and Christina 10. Between my parenting, photoshoots, Renderosity and playing in paint shop/ photoshop I keep very busy ! I also have a sweet, loving cocker spaniel named Candi who is very needy of much love and attention lol She goes with me on photoshoots-oh- 'cept when I am shooting birds haha cause she is a bird hunter by nature!!
 I LOVE any kind of art .like to draw and paint with basically anything I can get my hands on (LOL)!
I have fallen in love with photography
opening up light and dark and seeing the limitless possiblities! But I do still love to paint too!!  Works like Nightfears , came from nothing but my immagination -drawing/ painting with only a mouse paint and smudge tools from a blank page in paintshop 7. I started out with a Nikon 7900 pocket cam and am at the moment working in photography..now also have two other canon pocket cams a sl900
and sx 100is - mainly all my work in my gallery is done with my little pocket cams - they go with me everywhere and is an an extention of my right hand!! I have a canon rebel as well but it isnt working all that great so manly using the pocket cams for now . Learning..growing and sharing on here is the best!! I don't know what I would do without this site it has helped me learn so much..( this site motivates me so much ) I love it here ! yeah so I got the photography bug ..and I also love to do photo art...!! I, every now and then I will do a painting or a smudging as I call it.( you can see most of my smudge painting works hand done with a mouse on the first two pages of my gallery!!)

Great Job, K - and I'd expect nothing less from someone as talented and thoughtful as you. Congratulations on your job - hope you love it and make many friends and memories there. I am a John Cusack fan as well - my wife and I are currently watching "better off dead" (one of his early ones) which she has never seen before. Hope he was as nice in person as he seems to be on screen. Blessings, S.

I love the light setting and the contrast between the sky and the Pier and Ferris wheel! Oh and I just fell in love with with soooooooo cute and lovely dog! I would like to hold him but I cannot!

now Kimmers, what are you talking about "Sorry this shot wasn't better, but only had the old cam."??????? First of all, this is OUTSTANDING!!! I just LOVE what you've done!!!!!! hmmmmmm...can't think of a thing i'd change about it 'cause i think you did it perfectly!!! I love how you composed it, and the colors are just exquisite!!! and then Eija in the frame like that...looking at that wonderful scene...well that's the perfect touch! i love the ferris wheel and the pier in silhoutte!!! Secondly, just because it's an old cam doesn't mean you can't take magnificent images with it! don't sell yourself short. Look at what you did here, girl! Now give yourself some pats on the back!!! It's NOT the camera but the photographer!!! You did a helluva job!!!! Believe in yourself!!!!! :) anyway, did i tell you how much i love this??? i see Andreas did too! gotta add this one to my favs!!!!! Keep up the great work! :)
