Illustration Friday: Bicycle

One Stylish Mama
I started with a pencil drawing of the bicycle which I scanned
into my PSE 8...the final step was adding the photo for a background.

Illustration Friday: Bottled

http://illustrationfriday.com

In considering the theme 'Bottled'...I soon came up with bottled water.

It seemed appropriate to place the bottled water over an image of a globe...

considering the need for safe drinking water world wide.

IA Roald Dahl Challenge

After a bit of research I found this portion of a poem by Roald Dahl that I found amusing...especially after I found this old post card image!  Aren't these ladies delightful!

IA Self Portrait Challenge

http://www.inspiration-avenue-team.blogspot.com/

Kinda scary...I am not quite sure what this says about me!!

IA Spring

http://inspiration-avenue-team.blogspot.com/

. 

Spring...the hopeful season...sunshine, blue sky, fresh breezes, kites,

children playing, lilacs, ducklings, butterflies, tulips, daffodils, bees,

lambs, green grass, dandelions...

This image was a bit of a new adventure for me as I did more 'painting'

with brushes in PSE 8. Starting with the line drawing I painted by adding 

bits and pieces of photos and then filling in by brushing on layers of color

in the remaining areas.  I am especially pleased with the way the little

girls dress turned out using a cut from a chintz image.  :)
