Thanks Stephen. This was done with airbrush and a fine scratching technique with layer upon layer of transparent color in between the fine scratching with an X-acto knife. I will never do this again since I've gone digital. It was too painstaking. Thanks for appreciating the work. Your photography is beautiful.

Thanks Jennie! What's next are more than a few hundred pieces of art over a very long career. Now I just need to upload them. Maybe when I retire at 85! Then I'll be able to afford the time.
