the peas are a poppin

April 30, 2011

And we gardened this weekend.  It feels so good to have done this and get ready for the next stage, the fun part. The time of planting, of having my hands in the wonderful, moist, beautiful Earth

Nice reminder that gardening is something to love, to cherish the moments when my hands are in the soil and my head is in the air.

My very first textured photo

April 25, 2011

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.

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’m kinda in numb mode, I’m so flattered

I have just been invited to a phone interview on Monday to a Blog called faboverfifty.com and I don’t even know how to feel, other than very, very flattered. Sara loves my watercolors and my photography. WOWZA….❤ ❦ ❧

One Exquisite Peony Blossom

February 18, 2011

One Exquisite Peony Blossom, originally uploaded by newmexicomtngirl.

really love my watercolors, well not everyone I’ve ever painted, but you don’t see those. But I have to say that I am as in love with this single bloom now as the day I painted it many years ago. I still have the original painting, which is a whole bouquet of fuchsia, honeysuckle, pink peonies and yellow tulips. I can’t part with that AT all. So here is a little tease, a little taste of exquisite Love.

I had this printed at iprintfromhome and I am so happy with their service and quick turn around.  If you are interested in checking them out for yourself I added a link on my sidebar that will give me credit with them if you sign up under my name.  but go have a looksee.  Their prices are great and the product I’ve received so far is awesome.  they also send a calibration kit so you can see what you are ordering.  I want some metallic prints next and some canvas and some…….. Well anyway you get it right?

I have this listed in my etsy store for 23. dollars plus shipping if interested.

Will come with wide white border and no watermark
