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!!)

I like how you put this image together, sharp horse and blurred background really focus'es the attention on the foreground...Gorgeous colors in this one...this horse is so patient.... A new cam to boot! Can't wait to see what you can do with an SLR...exciting times are coming...! Aloha~

Kimarie, what a lovely picture! I love your POV, (kind of humoristic as well - excellent) and the fact that you made something happen in the background, which put the beautiful horse into its habitat, so to speak.

What I find interessant very, in addition to the recit of Kimarie, it is its framing. Is its stereotype a beautiful lesson of photography, why? the easy way of the artist was to position under the mean level of the mare, to give him an importance which it obtains, by making so that the buildings appear under the head of the horse. It redimensionne thus the horse by photographically indicating it like the subject of the photograph, and by minimizing all the remainder of the decoration, without removing it. Even if Kimarie adores his/her daughter, she wanted to speak to us about this horse, and its stereotype is a splendid success. I include/understand the hesitations of Kimarie in front of his SLR. Me I have horror of the automatics, I like to play with the speed of film, the setting rate of sight, the opening and the depth of field. I do not know if one can louper a photograph with a SLR, but Kimarie wonders whether its photographs will be always them his... true debate!
