Thank you Carla, Sandra and Kay for your inspiring reactions. I am truly touched by your attention to my gallery and appreciation of this piece. Carla, the greatest compliment, I think, is for someone to want your work in their home and in their life. Thank you so much for that.

Thank you, Susan. After adjustment of levels and curves in Photoshop, I used Corel Painter Essentials 3 to "paint" in the effect. I tested a few different paint programs and found this one to work best for me. BTW, love your work! And thanks for asking about this piece.

Awesome piece of work and so deserving of a first place win. This reminds me of some old paintings from long ago, in Europe perhaps. You have a very nice gallery full of beautiful images and I will be back to visit again. Thank you, Mick, for taking the time to look and comment on my second place win.
