Everyone's pictures are great. Here is a photo of the view we have, looking towards Canada, from our deck at the property we go to for fishing/relaxing and of course, quilting!

The thought might be intimidating, but in reality, it is pretty easy. Study the picture, and work far to close - by that I mean probably the sky would be applied on a washed muslin background. Use a gluestick to hold better. Keep working far to near, - I had taken a class in Springfield last year and really enjoyed it.

Isn't it awesome? And there was nothing done to the picture, it is just raw photo.

Marsye...you are in such a beautiful part of this country!! I had not been to arkansas 'til last spring. My step-son is doing his graduate studies at Fayetteville. We drove down for his wedding last spring. I sooo enjoyed the fabulous scenery along the way.
