Description
This picture was taken by me at My cousins' daughters' wedding... this is Trisha
.. I first saw her when she was a baby and the first thought I had of here was "kitty cat eyes!! she has beautiful eyes...!
She was a candle lighter at my huge wedding in 1990 when she was only 10. Anyways, I snuck outside to find her resting in the dark( at the end of her wedding reception) -found her kneeling down in this puffy cloud of gown to rest ..she was exausted out from a long day of her HUGE wedding.. she looked like a princess.
AND what a sweetie
SHE REMINDED ME OF A "BELL"!!
I always loved this pic- .. it was at a fancy winery place that had this soft light outside .. so I didn't ever want to forget that moment...she was stunning even after a long day and being tired her beauty still lit up the night air!!
so i snapped this and knew it was a special pic .
OK there are two of these I have worked on -the painted one and the photo -
this is the photo...
I spent hours and hours painting the other one I might put it up tommorrow night )
BUT_
LOL!!- I had to post this one instead cause loved the picture MORE
but I did do lots of postwork here and yes-add a little of my smugding to it
..FOr those of you that dont know about my painting on pictures I take a pic and smudge it around with just a mouse using no paintbrushes only paint and smudge tools in psp7..
WELL glad to say - I am feeling/doing much better.. and I appreciate all your care and support has meant the world to me and brought me strength this week!!
THANK YOU!
hugs- Kimmers!
