Wow this is really stunning…fantastic work!

Great concept…........great result.

This is gret! I am so going to try to jack with my face~ ;-)

And you should, Sandy! It’s a great way to hide imperfections.

I bet your face would have looked nice there :) it has a beautiful golden glow.

Awesome work, I do like the hide the imperfections comment,,,, giving it some thought:)

Thanks so much you all. I appreciate it. :)
And Suni, these are 2 of my favourite concrete textures
I combined. ;)

Beautiful especially love the eyes!

This is gorgeous!! You are mastering texture svery quickly!! The other one is great too but to be honest I like this one much better – simple and effective. Love the way your cropped the face.

fantastic,,, so beautifully created, well done Birgitta

Took me a while – I just got it… cooool Birgitta.. Wonderful SP love the treatment, love the look.. yes you do have beautiful eyes.. second, third and forth what they said.. ;)

Great image Birgitta…Nicely done.~A

awesome

You guys, thanks so much for your comments.
I want to also say thanks especially for not using the individual
“reply” button. WHAT A HEADACHE!!!

THANK YOU!!

concrete textures or not, beautiful work, beautiful face.

Very mystic and beautiful ,i love the processing.

Oh my goodness…
I just realized I accidentally added a 0 to my typical
markup price (by accident!!) making a print almost 50 bucks.
EGAD! For those that may have seen it…PLEASE believe,
I would never be so full of myself! Ha….

Thanks Carlos & Gigi!

very interesting birgitta…....and original, great

i see you found yourself…LOL…excellent..!!!

very cool, very abstract. unique work, birgitta.

It appears a rare find….a treasure….men would sail ships in search of her….pilgrimages and crusades have a cause….she has come to us through legends and ancient writings….oh to possess a portion of her virtues….edifices are built in her name and image….
This is the path of my thoughts when I see this art.
I also think of Jesus in the pancake, or Mary seen in a tree stump….also inspiring to some but in a different way. LOL

Great work Birgitta. Such rich colours. This would make a fantastic print.

“Art is never finished, only abandoned”
Leonardo da Vinci

Thia is my favorite quote of his.

this is just so beautiful – i love what came out of this but this one i love – maybe because i am a sucker for portraits and people, whatever the reason this has a great sense of the innocence about it – great work – love your sp.

Just lovely—-love the layers..

Love those textures! Where’d you grab those from? This makes a terrific abstract portrait. Woohoo, new favorite…!

Outstanding work Birgitta, maybe I should use the individual reply button just to bug ya! OK I was joking that button sucks…. unlike this shot and treatment.

I love the glow and the textures here! The blending is superb too! :)

Fort Knox is open.

this is so cool! I love the layering techniques you used. You are so good at this blending.

This is fantastic.. I love the simplicity of it, the colour and the high contrasts.. look again and you see your face.. its a brilliant and subtle piece of work and the textures very nice.. Great stuff!

cool, strange,cool!

beautiful effect on the portrait. Wonderful work. I like the gold tones.

THIS IS SWEET! NICE TEXTURE!

Thats soooo cool!!! took me a while to see the eyes… but once you do… its like wow!!!! I agree with the biblical conotations…. very byzantine??? you are great at the constructed image…. I cant even begin to think in those terms!!!

I actually really like this one too. The angle of your face is nice and the crackly effect makes the image look kind of timeless. (Would be good if your nose was a little more visible though.)

The texture and tones are brillant … very beautiful.

Beautiful colour, tone and texture – a beautiful piece Birgitta

stunning like always

Thank you all so very much…

Looks very interesting. very nice colours

Great composite – love the textures and tones!

Wow, this is absolutely amazing!!

Beautiful pic, really haunting. reminds me of ‘body tracing’ – a street art intervention used to commemorate those who had ‘disappeared’ in Argentina.

Wow, I love the colors, so relaxing and warm! All your photography is beautiful Brigitta!

Another amazing work of yours :) awesome!
