Princess Fairy 1


Lately, my niece Gi has been obsessed with dressing up as a "princess". So during winter break, I tried to photograph her in her various "princess" outfits. Here's one as a Princess Fairy, probably the first in a series.

Sold!

I had submitted 10 holiday themed cards for sale at LeMoyne during their Art of Giving holiday sale: 2 poinsettias, 4 boy angel fairies and 4 girl angel fairies. Interestingly, only the girl angel fairies and 2 poinsettias were sold. Guess people don't want to buy images of boy angel fairies??

Mother Nature Watches Over the 3Ds

Here's another portrait of the 3Ds...

Selecting the 3Ds


Recently, I ordered Photoshop Masking&Compositing by Katrin Eismann. So I've been reading it and practicing some of the techniques she describes in her book. I made this simple image of the 3Ds (DeOliveira family) using 2 easy selection techniques (magnetic lasso and color range for the cone flowers).
