Description

)

I painted the fur in Painter, painted in a new background and texturised the image. When I get the time I find it relaxing doodling.
Tools used in Photoshop CS4 were the dodge and burn, of course the smudge brush and many layers LOL. ~Pat

My Mothers favorite song was Beautiful Dreamer. It's so nice to hear it again, Big Sis. Mom passed away when I was 24.

This is a wonderful memorial to R.O.. At first I thought your dogs name was ROY until I read the dedication.

:)

Love to you way out there! -Laura #7800867

Oh little Sister, so sad you mother passed away when you were 24. That's young! My other passed away when I was six years of age, too young also!

This is so gorgeous!!!!! Wow! the light and color amazing. He's so pretty. If I may say the little flowers and lamp post detract a bit. #7840455
