Practice from magazine ad -- personal exploration at this time.

Eventually I will get around to setting up a printer and paint
some faces from deviant-stock models.

War paint indeed. Your talent is great, I thought this and muse were photos when looking at their thumbnails.

Thank you.

I can't remember if I ever got around to telling you I haven't been contributing much to MixedMediaCollage because I wasn't sure if all the photomaniping I've been doing fits the parameters. I get confused between what is collage, and what the difference is between digital art, and photomanipulation. Some groups divide those last two.

I'm feeling spread thin, so if I already wrote or asked you this, sorry for repeat. I'd like to submit more, but they go straight in and I didn't want to put you in an awkward position to have to pull them out. NOt to mention time consumption running a group.

It is a great group. Thank you for that. I'm writing all this here, because I'm afraid I'll get sidetracked. That happens all the time. SO much stimulus here. I'm not so good at avoiding the tyranny of the urgent, versus the important. Know what I mean?

But all good.
Love ya.

May all the love and good energy Me and mine possess be your's as well this Joyeux Noël, dear Melanie.
Not to worry about submissions to the group, I haven't found anything not fitting with the vision of the group.
Please submit away, It is my job to filter if needed, bit I'd rather that than not see the submissions at all.

I hope this is a healing solstice, Christmas, winter time for you

Love ya too!

Awww, thank you hafoot. Back when you wrote this comment, I was forgetting to look back past the first page of comments and I missed a bunch.

I can still enjoy it today. Appreciate the time you took to give me this feedback.

I have to go get something to eat now. Your avatar always makes me hungry.

Haaa

Thanks. Some take a really long time, and others are easier and look better. This one actually took less time than most of the others!
