OOhh hold that thought!

I've only recently got all the permissions from the stock suppliers to produce this as a DA print. I'm away for a few days but expect this to go up as one of my first ever prints by the middle of January.

this is amazing! it's so well put together and thought producing that you can't simply look at it. I t get's your mind thinking about the story behind it, even if there really isn't one^^ Awesome.

There were several different stories that kept changing along the way during production on this one but I think it with some images it's best to let people make their own stories.

Is the girl you? Your child? Your mother? Is she even real or is she a ghost? What happens if the decay and insects catch up with her?

Many thanks for the comment and

Aww shucks! Well that should make it two votes (mind you the other one's my daughter and she's just as likely to vote against me on principal)! Makes me feel like I should be putting policies forward for class president

I'm speechless. I love this. The colours are so fresh and the girl so angelic. It's perfect. How did you manage to get those colours? I'd love to know. A definite !

Uuummm (*thinks back, scratches head*) ...actually apart from the darker green around the foreground walls I've not fidgeted the colour much. I matched the girl and other layers to the colouring of the background using Image, Adjustments, Match colour and fidgeting the levels there. The darker green was a composite image laid over the top that had been colour adjusted with the middle area masked out.

Many thanks for the comment and .

Thanks for the . The cobwebs I was happy with thanks to lovely brushes. The ivy was far more difficult and I'm still not completely happy with it in places. Extracting the ivy and the roots nearly drove me nutty!
