My name is Tara, and I was born and raised in Washington State.
Â
In 2010 I married Bill (bmac62) and retired ... two of the best choices I ever made! :)
Â
In March, 2013, we sold our home in Washington and went on the road in our RV full time. What a blast! There is so much world out there to see!
After traveling around the West for a few years, we got rid of the motorhome and are now spending winters in deep-south Texas and summers in Washington State. Spring and fall finds us visiting whichever place strikes our fancy at the time!
Â
If I’m missing from Renderosity from time to time, I’m busy having fun elsewhere.
Thanks for your interest in my work, and for stopping by to learn more about me!Â

My mother used to make delicate paper roses like this one Tara, she used crepe paper and wire for the stems. If she took her time with them you would be hard judged to note the difference so yes I would believe you. I used to help her when I was young, one year she was asked to do flowers for the local festival for a float that had entered. Someone else saw them and she was asked to do some more for a beauty Queen pagent. It finished up with about three thousand roses for that one. I like the filter you have used for this, it does look very much like the texture of crepe or tissue paper. An excellent capture and presentation. Bravo!!!!!
