Description

I Painted this portrait today in psp7 using only a mouse smugde , paint, and softning /lighting tools.. this was taken from a picture I took myself by holding the camera at an angle in the bathroom (LOL)...of me and my little girl who I am very proud of right now! This is for my daughter Janel she deserves it .Forgive me for being the gloating Mother here, but hey cant help IT -I am SO proud of her!. Every year she gets honored for schoolastic acheievments ..she JUST got another medal of honor and was choosen out of all the kids for her citisenship and helpful personality. she has an old soul that is wise beyond her years.. I remember the morning she was born there was the most glorious sunrize I had ever seen the sky was dappled in brights hues of peach crimson and orange with clouds highlighted by light brilliant blue...i looked up and my mother ( who is terribly discerning) said this one will be a special child.. .. her teacher remarked how intellegent and helpful she is and how much she is a sponge wanting to explore and learn everything!!.. so I can't help being proud and painted this for her to honor her hard work and giving heart!! Thanks for looking ..! and your time and comments ..!! I will be out of town for the holiday to visit family this week ..love ya all- this sight is a new awaking and JOY TO ME!! HAPPY EASTER!!! (and don't forget to drain your eggs with a needle first so you can keep your artwork!!) hugs - Kimmers !

A beautiful piece of art full of love, warmth and compasion... V This image touches me greatly as only this week I found out my own Mom (aged 72) has a malignant tumour behind her eye... It's bad enough she suffers with Parkinsons and now cancer...

Dear Kimarie, you and your daughter are both so beautiful - and you can feel the love that radiates between you. Such a touching picture and toughing words. You picture turned out so well and is so powerful in the gray scale. Mother and daughter should justifiably feel proud in their own accomplishments and in the accomplishments of each other. This picture is one she will one day show to her own daughter- and granddaughter! You've created a beautiful memory! Excellent work and thoughts!! Love, Meredith
