Step Forward Take Courage.....

Description

Another piece created in, and worked on, in Psp.
I stayed up until four in the morning to complete it! Crazy lady huh!
The finished image consists of fifteen layers, but don't panic, l have no intention of explaining each one!
The background colours consist of one gradient and two blocks of colour airbrushed on and then blended.
The trees were cloned on using layers, and merged.
The eyes were brushed on, and are drawn originally in charcoal.
The lady was cloned, and a tint of blue and shading added, before softened and placed in the water.
The water is part effect and part cloning and painting.

I always enjoy making these pieces for one reason or another.
This l enjoyed because of the colours and the earthy feel l get from it!
I enjoyed blending reality with a touch of fantasy!

THOUGHTS

The lady is hesitating.
Afraid of moving on.
She knows that in order to leave her past behind, She has to move forward, but She's afraid!
She can not see what lies ahead and fears her own inability to face it!
What She doesn't consider is that while She is capable of facing her fears of change, Her constant doubting of herself and her own strengths, is the very reason She can't.
If She would just have confidence in her own strengths and capabilities, She would not be standing still in a sea of doubt, frustration and self condemnation!
She could look ahead fearlessly!!

Perhaps we could all learn a lesson....
Perhaps we should all learn to....

Step Forward...Take Courage..and...Embrace The Unknown!
