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!!)

Love the POV here and the story, it reminds me of the summer I was taken to a second cousins horse breaking ranch. He was a big, tough Cree Indian and I was a little 6 year old white boy and he terrified me but when he brought out a Shetland pony just for me to ride he became my Favorite cousin. lol Thanks for the fun shot! :)

Wow Kimmie, that is one fine looking horse and it sounds like your girls had lots of fun riding this horse!!! I remember riding horses (never bareback) when I was a kid, I even rode a donkey, very uncomfortable!!! This is a fantastic photo and a beautiful farm scene!!! Hugsss Frankie ^_^

very beautiful horse Kimarie and I thought you had taken it on your trip.right now is an excellent time to buy compact flash sandisk extreme II because they are clearing them out for III's. the II's are plenty fast and your Canon uses cf. through some price plus 10% guarantees I managed to get II one gig for $26.the normal price is $70.00 and when they were first released they were more than $100.00. I really like your pov

Magnificent animal! Excellent POV and colors. Nice light and shadow from the low-in-the-sky sun. I get the same feeling about my two cameras, that I'm being disloyal to one while using the other. Actually, I have four cameras: two digital, and the other two of the older 35mm film variety, which I haven't used for years.

And here I am with no apple! Excellent!

I tried riding a horse. They know if you're in control or not.. They sure wouldn't listen to me, lol. Beautiful capture. Aloha

Wow, this is one clever shot, it's like a story inside of a story. I like the way you have the background subjects framed by the white mare. Fantastic POV, this whole shot.....RAWKS!!!

Welcome home kimmers: happy to see your wonderful Photos once more: That horse look large with the big window open I think horses are beautiful but I am very afraid of them it's a long story! but this picture is awesome !

What a cool day for you and the girls. That Appaloosa looks young, almost coltish. Wonderful to have such a great encounter like that. Excellent image. Love horses myself. !!!
erskogly
Superb shot! The skewed perspective giving the horese a loooooong neck combined with the colorful cowgirl looks great. Excellent work!

I like this POV of a farm animal. You so good at see things from a different view, makes me realize not everithing is at eye level only.
