I use to have horses and the farrier would come regularly. It always fascinated me to watch him work.
Text Reads: Farrier is now usually applied specifically to a blacksmith who specializes in shoeing horses, a skill that requires not only the ability to shape and fit horseshoes, but also the ability to clean, trim, and shape a horse's hooves.
Construction: I started with ArtPlay Palette Anew Solid Paper #1. I added some layers (no frames) from Artsy Template MultiPack No 2 #10. I placed Number FotoBlendz No 1 #7 and clipped the modified photo (I used several PS filters and revised coloring). I brushed areas of the fotoblendz to best conform to my photo.
To fill in areas of the canvas, I added numerous transfers, overlays and art strokes from the ArtPlay Palette Anew, and ArtsyTransfers Anew.
I placed the ArtPlay Palette Anew Frame under the transfers on the right edge with blend mode Linear Burn. I also placed Artsy Clocks No 4 #4 under the transfers for the left edge.
For the title, I used Celebrate WordART Mix No 2 Wood Word “life” with the word art “memories” from #8 and ButtonThreadz No 1 #15.
For the cluster, I used the ArtPlay Palette Anew Star, Flower and Amber Button with part of Artsy Clocks No4 #3.
I added Celebrate WordART Mix No 2 ScriptTease and Word Transfers underneath with Sparkle Dots No 1 scattered about the layout.
