Hi, I'm Andrea, and I'm interested in creatures and plants both wild and tamed, and people of all sorts. I only use a compact digital camera ,as I love being able to get it into a back pocket, and not have to cart heavy kit about. I carry a Panasonic Lumix TZ series, binoculars and a hand lens almost everywhere.Most of my outings are with the dogs so I only use point and shoot.
I am getting the hang of Photoshop, thanks to some very kind folk on RR!
I have a wildlife garden in Bournemouth, Dorset, in the UK, and spend a lot of time there . I retired from teaching art to teenagers a while ago.
I'm now getting some good results with my digi compacts; it took me a while to make the switch from my old film camera, an 1960 ish Pentax Spotmatic, but the mistakes are much cheaper!
I have 4 lodgers, 3 dogs and a parrot who, as at 2017, I have had 40 years.
I has so far had 19 dogs, mostly rescues.

just love it, Andrea. Love your great face, that "andrea" nose (3 lobes, so distinct), your big knuckly fingers, all your little indentations in the side of the torso, that great adam's apple (another trademark), and that great smile, with anchor earrings, frilly seaweed for hair, and all those scales. Love it: a great image and pose. I'm terrible coloring images---if i did anything to this, I'd wind up making mayhem of it, so I'll leave it alone---it's great just as it is. (And is his first name "Ethyl"?) (Can he belt out a song, and break windows doing it?) Terrific.

I was thinking "Ethyl" too but thought it was too obscure. Besides, Mark beat me to it. A fun image. He does have a kindly demeanor.

Oh like how you pieced him together !
The odd and unusual bits and pieces are very amusing.

OH Is that Neptunus Rex? He looks really like an important sea person :-) Great sketch, Andrea :)
