This must be another one of those pieces where you completely transform the original photo; it’s been a long while since I’ve come across one of those. Now I’m curious as to what the original looked like ;)
Carrie Glenn replied
Thank you Mui-Ling! ;D Nice to hear from you.
Actually there is no original photo! Can you beleive it? ;D
I painted; airbrushed all of my characters by hand, Abigail and her animals… :-) and I created the background with photo reference and some really cool tools, it doesn’t exist anywhere…except in my head.Thanks so much for your comment…take care! xoxo
