Kimarie Chartier here- 43. I live in Canyon Country /Newhall area , Southern California. I have always been an artist . I started drawing at age two. My Mother said when I was a child I always had something to draw with in hand and I would cry when the paper ran out (LOL) ..I went to art school for a short while and have taught art to elementry school kids. I have done many oil paintings , pastels and watercolors , but recently , have been intrigued with digital photography and computer photo art in paint shop pro. now, I mainly work in Paint shop pro 7 and 11. I now also just beginning to work in ADobe photoshop cs2 ! I also am a full time Mom with three girls ( who are all over my gallery) Annie 16, Janel 13, and Christina 10. Between my parenting, photoshoots, Renderosity and playing in paint shop/ photoshop I keep very busy ! I also have a sweet, loving cocker spaniel named Candi who is very needy of much love and attention lol She goes with me on photoshoots-oh- 'cept when I am shooting birds haha cause she is a bird hunter by nature!!
 I LOVE any kind of art .like to draw and paint with basically anything I can get my hands on (LOL)!
I have fallen in love with photography
opening up light and dark and seeing the limitless possiblities! But I do still love to paint too!!  Works like Nightfears , came from nothing but my immagination -drawing/ painting with only a mouse paint and smudge tools from a blank page in paintshop 7. I started out with a Nikon 7900 pocket cam and am at the moment working in photography..now also have two other canon pocket cams a sl900
and sx 100is - mainly all my work in my gallery is done with my little pocket cams - they go with me everywhere and is an an extention of my right hand!! I have a canon rebel as well but it isnt working all that great so manly using the pocket cams for now . Learning..growing and sharing on here is the best!! I don't know what I would do without this site it has helped me learn so much..( this site motivates me so much ) I love it here ! yeah so I got the photography bug ..and I also love to do photo art...!! I, every now and then I will do a painting or a smudging as I call it.( you can see most of my smudge painting works hand done with a mouse on the first two pages of my gallery!!)

lovely daughter Kimmie. great image too, good work. hmmm.. it's hard to know when to stop with post work, I do it all the time. not having seen the photo before you did the pw I cant realy comment but if Zacko says her hair was prettier, then I can imagine you 'tidying' it up a bit, it's something mothers do. I think it's a beautiful image anyway and a beautiful memory to keep and treasure. (little girls tend to grow up all too soon)

A bit odd in the postwork, but the shot is great!

You have a lovely daughter, and her pose is so cute, maybe a little to much postwork though.

Seven is such an enchanted age and you've captured all the magic in this lovely photo of your beautiful daughter. She could be dreaming of fairy tale casltes and princes, I know I did at that age. Brings back the fantasy-filled days of youth, laying in the cool grass in my own make-believe world. Wonderful pov and postwork. Her dress seems to have an iridescent glow.:o) CC

Again a beautiful picture from your gorgeous daughter!! It looks like she is laying in a garden with play houses around her!! You got it really good, the relation inbetween her and the houses are totally different, the houses looks so small!! Wonderful made!
