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!!)

Kimarie, I am astonished enough to see in your photographs, the same love that you carry in Chrissy, as well refleté in his intelligent glance. The spiritual communion, seems to exist on a very high level, would be this only to thank you for your agreement for this splendid drawing. You, like your child, will keep this 45 minutes of exemplary wisdom, it, a marvellous memory by seeing the drawing, you an extraordinary moment in complicity with your child. Thanks for having made us share delight!

Oh don't they (children) just love to prove you wrong?? LOL! Yep, the amount of times I've said that my kids won't do this or that and then they just have to go and do it!!! Anyway, she is gorgeous and I can sense the huge amount of love that you have for her in your writings and you have presented that 45 minutes in a beautiful collage - definitely one to be treasured forever! And perhaps with the offer to model for him, this could be a future career for her?? Hugs Chrissy xx

nice collage of a beautiful young lady. it reminds me of same kind of artists spread all around the 'Place du Tertre' near Montmartre in Paris, catching expressions of tourists' face on their drawing paper...

What a beautiful child she is, a lovely composition too!

Beautiful collage of a special young lady, both the portrait by the painter and the portrait by the photographer are excellent. I think the artist will very much appreciate the collage you are sending to him. I think you're collage as well as Chrissy's charcoal portrait would look fantastic framed and hung on the wall. Beautiful. Bravo!!!!!
