rooster
I added Kim Klassen’s paper stained texture to my original watercolor ‘rooster’ .
used vivid light at 58%
reduced the image size so I could add text and there you have it.
Shared on KimKlassen’s Texture Tuesday
my original painting of this rooster sold on my etsy store sometime last year (but I can still make prints, if you are interested)
watercolor rooster original
rooster in Mexico
and it all started with this photo I took on our trip down the coast of Mexico 2 years ago.

Lemon Chiffon pie Yellow Daffodil
I am just having so much fun learning how to texture. This beautiful textures came from
irisb477 she lets you use her textures when you link back to her and that’s fine by me, because it is all so fun.

Well I finally did it. I really don’t know why I haven’t tried textures yet. I mean I’ve been playing around with Photo Shop Elements since number 6 and I’m on 9. so that means at least 5 years. I kinda think that I might get addicted and spend even more time on this computer thing I love so much. I’m beginning to believe that maybe it’s not healthy how much I want to do on this thing.
first textured image
I’ve always been drawn to computers from the git go. Back in the early 80′s when Apple’s where making there way into schools and such, I insisted that my husband (at that time) spend his 401k on an Apple Macintosh for our then young children. And it paid off too. My eldest Jacob, is now a radioman for a fast attack sub in the US Navy, which is all about computers. My youngest son, Benjamin is now (yeah, finally) going to school for computers up in Washington. Now just to get my daughter to make the leap.
Anyway……..
So watching a video over on Kim Klassen Cafe yesterday made layers and textures look so easy. I tried it this morning and with my own texture too.
little grape hyacinth
water-pane texture
These pictures I took yesterday during a massive, hard hail and rain storm we had here in New Mexico. We really, really need the moisture.
I think I’ll go try some more.

I have been really thinking of starting another blog and using Blogger.com because they have tons of artists and its easy to follow their blogs. But I just can not commit and the reason is their comment process. So many times and I really wish all my fellow bloggers that use blogger, know how many comments you miss because Blogger makes it so hard to process a simple comment without jumping thru a million hoops. All to leave words of encouragement, or kudos, or just a hello, nice to find your site. But not with Blogger.com I was just now making a comment and when I got to the post comment part I used wordpress and accedently hit the return key before everything was typed in and my whole comment vanished before I even realised what had happened.. I know I should have been paying more attention, but come on, this happens more times than not. yuck
Here is the subject that another Blogger was posting about and how fun her post was. A beautiful wooden chair that had been in the family forever, she had inherited it and painted it shiny black with pink and orange stripe cushions. How fun,….. so I thought I would post a scan of a sketch I did of my favorite chair years ago.
My Green Chair
Now I need to go back and find that post. Wish me luck

RedBubble is where you can find this sketch in post cards, prints, canvas’ and even posters.
How about this one? I darkened it in photoshop
My Green Chair w/contrast
and here she is in my history. thank goodness my computer knows how to save pages.
Check out her post, my it really is fun
