Piran Alley revisited

This is a digital manipulation of a painting I just finished today. The painting is gouache on yellow paper. It's from a photo I took in Piran, Slovenia, on our honeymoon. I manipulated it digitally primarily because I can't help myself. I like to play. You can see the original unmanipulated painting here. Click this image to view it larger.

The first time I visited Slovenia with the Vermont College Writing Program, there were red geraniums everywhere--I don't know if there was some geranium festival going on or what, but I was disappointed when we went back there there were miscellaneous flowers, so when I painted the picture, I put the red geraniums back where they had been, more or less.

BB in pigment markers

I got new pigment markers for Christmas and have been experimenting with them. They are different than dye markers.

Hennie's Fractal

I made this fractal for Hennie. It's sort of similar to the one I
made for Aya, though I started from scratch, but the colors are chose
for Hennie. I guess I was thinking of her red hair, freckles and
peachy skin. And colors that would go well with that combination.
This is for the collection I've started for Hennies pocket.
