"Coming Home"

Can you believe this started out being a photo of my face?!

I added so many layers/FX/filters & brushes & before I knew it,
I’d turned into this. I decided to keep it. ;)

    I think I can see your eye in there somewhere. ;) This is fabulous. I love the warm yellow tones that remind me of honey and the fabulous textures. It would look great on a wall with a black frame. :D And thanks for all your comments hun! hugs

    Another gorgeous show of your talent. The tones again are perfect. I would not have believed this was your face. It brings to mind two things.. one is the poem of the “Ancient Mariner” the other is a line from a movie called Serenity.. the main character stated that an Albatros only brings bad luck when “some idiot ” chose to shoot it down.. I see in this piece hope. Great job.
