transparent

Me and my brother, my son and my daughter. I look at the pictures of us all together and even I can't tell us apart sometimes.

I am in the big picture (YES I KNOW it is not a great picture but it captures my youth as a tom boy all dirty at the lake). I am the girl in the cap on the left, my daughter to the far right. Below my duaghter on the right is my brother and me. Below us is me with short hair then my two kids.

Now, can you figure the rest out? Do the kids really grow up this fast? It is funny how working with pictures on the computer REALLY make you live the experiences of that moment again.

Then again I feel like my kids are a reflection of my life. OR WAIT, maybe they are living my life over. Or maybe they are looking through my life and picking out the good things (I hope) and reflecting on them. So, is it showing up in my pictures? I am asking myself in all my pictures of them and myself everytime I take a picture.

ARE we not all somewhat transparent?

I am even having a problem sorting all of you out!! This is such a neat picture I really like it. I hope those that see it will offer comments on what they think.

Very nice original work, Micki!

Your an inspiration to all Micki... Beautiful.

Very good artistic style composition Micki. Well done my friend.

Oh the fun to be had with one's own face!

 

Methinks you have worn it well!

 

Thanks for this, as ever.

Beautiful!

Dirty thing wasn't I ;) `~ It is funy to see how my kids my brother and me all meld together.

This work is cool...

Very good work Micki. Many faces, and expressions. It is fun working in layers. Best regards, Torfinn.

I love all the transparent faces as though they are coming through time. What a great idea! Do you do this with layers? I don't know how to do layers. Some day I would like to learn. This is so very cool!

Funny you wouldn't think it would work that way but it is easier :) ~ Ahhh it has been a busy week! Summer is a Bummer! LOL

I don't have one free weekend!

Superb this is a ten plus

...this lady always had a defiant smile..! Reminds me of that 60's tune "...you must have been a beautiful baby, you must have been a beautiful child...". I like it. A "cold" embrace Micki [for summer heat], here in Brasil it's winter. Cheers, Sergio

a "chill" ~ :( ~ it got up to 100 here ~ hot hot hot!!

...unfortunately [i like cold weather] here in the tropics things don't go below + 15.C.

It gets WAY tooooo hot here (our first summer in FlORIDA and I prefer cool weather. I LOVE SNOW and sweaters and warm fires. Only two years so I will be fine :)

...for me to retire yet...then I shall move to Nova Friburgo ( the coldest place near to Rio - 180kms - 2.000 meters above sea level)to hide myself and my dawgs, perhaps my wife, taking care of chickens & vegetable gardens!

ha ~ then your chickens ~ dawgs come first ~ I got such a giggle out of that!

 

My husband would say the golf clubs come first he he!

 

I like snow but not too cold. LOTS and LOTS of snow!!

Micki!~

 

This is beautiful work, print this and keep it with your family photos or matte and frame it. This is a very special, one of a kind piece.

I have finally found some time (ok made time) to do what I planned on doing this summer. Get those pictures on my computer and re-worked. :)

...high mountain's solitude should not be adequate for educated ladies...
