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!!)

Makes me think of my little daughter; she's 8 years too, she's crazy about ducks, and I haven't seen her in 8 months (sigh & sniff). You just got to cherish what's been given to you, every minute that it's there, you know what I mean... Beautiful shot again, Kimmers!!! They are both lovely ;-)

Ahem ... I'm sorry to bring this up but I couldn't help but notice ... Candi appears to be edging toward plumper status. Or is her fur just a bit extraordinarily fluffed out? Anyway, very nice shot -- excellent composition, lighting, and saturation.

I think that could be true a little bit, but I have seen the opposite. when there were plenty of tadpoles in a local creek the ducks would not look at bread. they look for food no matter where it comes from if they are hungry. very sweet shot Kimarie
jared99

Lovely perspective. So peaceful out there!

Very peacefully the child and the dog are in front of the water. But maybe the picture would still have been better if you had waited until the near sunset.

A beautiful shot with the ducks - your daughter and doggie look so peaceful. :o) CC
kimariehere
suzy007 the funny thing is that we were waiting for the sunset -this just happened naturally and unposed while we were waiting !!

I really like how the sun shines on Crissy and Candi. It kind of symbolizes how children and animals are especially blessed. Beautiful photo Kimarie. And I love the photo-story. Fantastic! Would make a great story collage.
