It took me a minute to realize what I was looking at, and then it hit me - a dog's eye. So funny to read your note! Made me laugh.

Very powerful! Thanks for remembering our soldiers.

Those must be something to see in person. The creativity and skill of people amazes me. Love the scene at the bottom. You combined so many kits!

What a neat old photo! Love the grasses.

So pretty!

The simple, clean lines of this are dramatic. I really like the purple on purple with the background and the letters. The outlining for the paper and the letters is echoed nicely as well.

Wowza. Love this. The color is so rich and saturated. Layering in the different scaled hay is a great idea.

I was inspired by the many bronze sculpture pieces completed by Degas...there were so many!

This was fun, with such bright colors!

Thanks so much for the Standing O! You are so kind!

Oh, wow. what an honor. Thanks so much!

Thanks so much for the challenge.

It sort of looks like you put this LO on an axis, emphasized by the arrows, paper / brush work and the embellishments. All the focus goes to the image. Just terrific.

Same here, including my brother, but I am guessing most of my ancestors had International Harvester tractors back in the day. My hometown had an IH plant, and my dad worked in the tool-and-die shop there. The Deere Pavilion is really something to see. Kids can climb into the cab of several giant...

Here is one from me. Thanks for the challenge. I did some tonal image edits, lomo effect, blending and layering with three duplicated images to bring up the color of the construction equipment and place my daughter and grandson in shadow.

This is absolutely stunning, and I love, love your shadowing. Everything just pops.
