The Flower Of My Heart (enlarge plse)

This composition is a combination of two different photos. A Scan of

a 'Film Image' that I took of my daughter Shauna, and a digital

image of a flower that I took in 2010. There are also numerous

Texture Layers and Blending Modes used. She truly is 'The Flower

Of My Heart' and when I am so fortunate to give her a big 'hug', her

fragrance is as beautiful as a 'delicate perfume'. I am truly blessed.

(Thankyou for any visits, most sincerely, Gail)

It is so nice to hear from you. I always enjoy your comments and they always seem to brighten the day or evening!!! Many thanks for your visit Richard!!!

Gail, Nice work, is it a self portrait? i really think the grain works here. Gives it character.

As I look through my images and those of others I know which ones were inspired and which ones were not. Not only in the title but in the image the inspiration of Shauna being the flower in your heart comes through in no uncertain terms.

That girl should have been in the movies!

Your daughter is beautiful!

Wonderful creation & very beautiful rendition.Max.

My best regards.

What a magnificent way to honor your daughter!  The superimposition of her image in the frame adds to the overall painterly effect. 

My best,

michael

Gail,

Very nice alterations! But I would'nt expect anything less!

I like the composition, as if her dreamy portrait is blooming from the flower!

Nice presentation too!
