I alter my photos with Photoshop so much I don’t know if it even counts as taking pictures anymore! A tummy tuck here…. chin removal there… is that a blemish? Not anymore it isn’t!

So… I posted pictures that were more like your challenge description… playing and creating art from otherwise dull, lifeless photos. Can’t wait to see the next challenge!

Rachelle…I am in such a funk that nothing is inspiring me lately…

…until now….

….DESPITE my funk…my lack of enthusiasm…I am going to do this…because it seems like a good a place as any to start to climb back out to the sun.

Thank you soooo much for this inspiration!!!

Peace in,
Lil

I did it! I did it! I created my very first ever digially altered little work of art. Thank you for that challenge. It was just what I needed to sit down and PLAY with my new Photoshop Elements program. It was a blast.

I will be encouraging my readers at Picture This to join in too!!
