We recently took a boat tour of Salt Run, a long stretch of water that flows from the St. Augustine inlet and the Atlantic Ocean. It was a birding and boating tour, and my, oh my, was it beautiful! I took lots of photos of St. Augustine from the vantage point on the water, and I downloaded them into my "Images to Paint," folder on my Mac. I can't wait to get started exploring these images for inspiration.
Picture above is the Bridge of Lions, that I altered in Photoshop as a duotone and then colored. It makes me think of some European town and new adventures. Speaking of which....the day for class sign ups is drawing near for the summer adventure at Artful Gathering. On May 3, you can sign up for classes once you've registered at ArtfulGathering.com.
