Description
This image is dedicated to Roxy (brewgirlca). She is one of the sweetest ladies I know, and she has been my friend for a long time. She uses the programs (Poser-7, photoshop CS4 and PSPX2) and is a very talented lady. Roxy brings stories to life in her art. My personal favorites are the stories of Ishtar, which are both beautiful and exciting when told by her. A trip in her gallery is like a journey through time, and it is a trip you should make soon. You will soon discover she has the talent to make any vision come to life, just as she did in the story she told to me. This story shows what great character she has, and that Roxy can do anything she desires because her will is so strong.
Look Mom, No Wheels (For brewgirlca): Roxy grew up in a small town, so the only way to get around was by bike. All the kids had training wheels on their bikes, but eventually the other kid’s dads and older brothers taught them how to ride. All too soon Roxy became the only kid with training wheels and of course that was unacceptable! It meant being left out of the gang rides. Roxy asked her Dad to help her learn, but he worked very long hours and was often on the road for many days at a time; his home life time with her was always short. So if she was gonna learn to ride a bike she would have to do it herself. So one day she got a pair of pliers from her Dad’s toolbox and took off the training wheels herself. She set the bike up against the wall in the garage, and climbed on the seat. Then in one swift motion she pushed off the wall but soon fell down. she got up, did it again and fell down once more. This happened many times, but after a while she glided a few feet before falling. Over and over she tried and her mom told her to stop. She would not quit no matter how much it hurt. Failure was not possible! Finally she could glide all the way to the road! But, oh my, then she had to make a turn. And you know what happened… yep, she fell down.
Finally, it happened, she glided down the driveway, turned- without falling- peddled a few strokes… and to her delight realized she was at long last riding her bike without those silly training wheels! Her dog Candace saw Roxy gliding down the street and began to follow her barking all the way, almost as if she was cheering her on. Her Mom heard the noise and ran outside to see what was going on. She saw Roxy and Candace going down the street and was so proud of her daughter. At last Roxy could once more be a part of the gang. Even more important, that day Roxy learned if she tried hard enough and believed in herself she could make her dreams come true.

nice work also nice bike, you are an expert in finding things to be placed on your art work..... anyways, nice story, I hope her dad found some time to be with her I know children grows up fast and that it is hard on fathers to manage time with kids especially if they are in the road all the time...I have a friend that is a truck driver and I hardly ever see him ....I am glad the girl is able to learn to ride the bike on her own.

A lovely story about learning and perseverance. You have such a gift for bringing personal stories to life in images and words. It's always a pleasure to visit your gallery. The child's and dog's excitement clearly shows in the body language and facial expressions, and the mother's pose is perfect. I like how the garage is half open, too. The retro costumes and scenery are perfect. Congrats on another successful post.

This one certainly brings back memories, I had a pink bike just like this growing up, the basket with flowers on it and all. I probably dressed somewhat similar to Roxy did as well lol, I have a picture of me riding that bike and at the time my hair was cut real short for summer, thanks MOM lol .. but what wonderful memories, our neighborhood had two very steep hills, and it took me a few years to get the nerve to finally ride down the second one. Thanks for the memory Dave, and this special work you did for Roxy. And hope you are getting your rest, and feeling better. hugss

Oh Dave, another beautiful memory brought to life in such a wonderful way! You've captured Roxy's story in such a wonderful, loving, and emotional way, I can feel the joy Roxy felt, and even the excitement of faithful companion, Candace! I don't know how you do it, but you manage to convey the feelings of the memories in such an incredible way .. truly you have a unique and magical talent!
