Description

The photos were originally Vintage German Postcards.I acquired them on a stock photo site. They were nude from the waist up, and apparently meant to be 'risque'. I dressed them and reworked them in Photoshop. I had such fun with them. I really enjoyed doing this one. I used brushes from annikavonholdt.com, and the lightning bolt was from rebelkitty.com. I am sick this weekend. I hope everyone else is doing alright. Thanks for all of the nice comments you left at my last post. Big Hugz!

Well we're glad that you dressed them up, looks like you did a fine job of it. Must have been summer when they took these pictures or else they would be freezing. We have a lot of memories too, but they mostly involve trees and being cold.

I love old postcards. I've never seen nudes on postcards, however. You dressed them so nicely. Wonderful artwork.
