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!!)

Awesome shot! Reminds me of old men on a park bench, for some reason. Can only imagine what they were discussing before they flew off...
Undertaker

The Pelican is a symbol of self sacrificing maternal love, as she was thought to pierce her own breast to feed her chicks with drops of blood. We used to have a big sculpture of a Pelican with chicks at my first school.

Maybe they flew off to deliver triplets. Kimmers, sorry to hear about the tooth. Bad pain I know. Do whatever you need to do to address inflammation and stick with a schedule. Hopefully Tues. you will bet real relief. Excellent photography as usual my dear.

A friend of mines told me to slosh a jigger of Jim Beam around my troubled tooth ache. It didn't cure the pain but it sure made it tolerable till I could see the doctor. You caught the eye of the beautiful Pelicans. Excellent shot. Aloha

Ahhh! Now there are some handsome lads! These guys I know about. They frequent the docks of my home town on Galveston Bay (Tx). When they come in for a landing they look like a squadron of B-52s. Nice catch, Kimmers!

Love your sense of symmetry and pattern here, Kim. This photo would be even more striking if cropped at the top. Excellent capture!

Superb and amusing capture, Kim. Brilliant work. Hope you feel much better soon... "Teeth hurt when they are coming, more so when they are going". Well, so my Mum says! Somehow, I know she is right.......Hugs.

What a goofy bird the pelican, his beak can hold more than his belly can. Great shot Kimmers, drink warm tea.
