Playing The Blues
A Peterson & Hiebert collaboration
Dimensions: 3102×2600
In collaboration with Shelly Hiebert I couldn’t resist the urge to ask Shelly if I could work with some of her images. She has an excellent photographic eye, and when she so kindly said yes and gave me the opportunity this image of a guitar player was my first choice. The signature on the guitar belongs to Shelly so you will see her name on the print ~ Thank you Shelly ~

Fantastic Mark! I absolutely love what you have done with this and that it is your personal interpretation of my original. I really admire your talent and am very honoured that you have done this and done it so beautifully! Thank you very much for this opportunity :) And even if it is tacky I am favouriting it ha!

Simply wonderful. I love that the original is included. It shows your creativity, Mark, and highlights what collaboration between good photographers and good digital artists can turn out. Excellent!! (Fav’d)
Mark Peterson replied
I’m very pleased with it Frannie, and I am going to see if I can’t display more originals along with my works in the future so people can get a better sense of what I do…A few more helpful hints and tutitoriols and things about my process maybe…I just need to slow down a bit LOL!

Marda Bebb
great shot, and treatment Mark… who is this blues-player? :)
Mark Peterson replied
I’m not sure, you’ll have to ask Shelly…she took the shot in 2008 and I’m not even sure if he was playing the blues, but that was my interpretation when working on it…Playing the blues ~ and I thank you Marda for your comment here, I appreciate it…!
Marda Bebb
He looks like a blues player to me for sure… just has that look! We are going to hear some in the park tonite, in beautiful Sherwood Oregon. I may even dance a little.. look out!!
