Description
This dedication is for Bakapo or better known as Barb and it was such a pleasure to do. Not just because I am finally over the flu. lol But because Barb is such a sweet and dear friend of mine and I was looking forward to this. Barb is so talented and can do so much from amazing Fractals that stop you in your tracks to wonderfully touching images in Daz Studio. Still I think a talent many of you don't know about is her ability to write stories and to express her ideas in such a elegant way that it literally draws you into them like your a part of it. This gift of her's really helped out when it came to doing this dedication for her. She described this scene that involved her Father Ed and then she told me that the reason this meant so much to her is because her Dad died 13 years ago this month. ( I have not included a lot of Dad's in my gallery and that is my fault, and something only my friend Jean-Luc probably understands why ) But Ed is one Dad I want to do my best for because of what a wonderful job he did in raising Barb. I'll use some lines from Barb's message to me so you can see her skill at writing.
My Day With My Daddy ( For Bakapo ) One of my favorite childhood memories was sitting in the backyard under our big maple tree with my Dad and my fluffy tiger cat named Muffy. It was a warm summer day, the kind of day that makes you feel lazy and slow. We sat in a couple of Adirondack lawn chairs, my feet couldn't even touch the ground the chairs were so big. We had some pale-green mind-flavored candy called mint juleps, ( I don't even think they make them anymore ), and we sat there chatting and laughing all afternoon eating chewy candy after chewy candy till the bowl was empty.... then we didn't want dinner, much to Mom's displeasure.
In my mind I saw Barb reaching for another candy from her Dad. I tried to capture this special moment Barb described with her Dad Ed and only hope that I have done decent for her and him. The only thing I might say is to those Dad's out there, and please hear me out. Don't put things like work or running around with your friends in front of your kids because that time you miss out with them is something you can never get back. If you have a little girl like Barb or a little boy try making time for them like Ed did for Barb. Trust me you will be leaving a impression on your child that they will never forget. Thanks,
Dave

Bravo encore tu mérites éloges et bienfaits et pour le dédicacé surement qu'il vas apprécier une oeuvre à la richesse et amour que tu as mit dans ce travail ((5++))

The charm of this helps one to ignore the obvious CGI elements prominently displayed. The trees in the back ground, for instance. A short fence just in front of the tree trunks would've disguised theie bases meeting the ground without having any variations in the grass, thus give the image a more authentic feeling. But as I said, the pure charm of this is its forte and you can get away with not adding such production values. Actuallty that's an art in itself.
