Description
Looks better on the *ZOOM* please.
Hi Guys, I hope you all feel good today. I apologise for falling behind with my comments and aim to put that right this very week.
I am so excited about this pic as it is mostly my own painting, and photography. It took me ages to create, especially the old witch with her
millions of wrinkles, (she looks similar to, but is older than the last witch painting I did). I cannot use my wacom intuos3 just now, due to my silly arthritic fingers, so was easier to use my mouse to paint.
I created my own effect brushes, i.e. skin, clouds, tree bark. using CS4 tools/effects.
I painted all of the witch, her clothes, her hat, her jewellery. Also the night sky (from various sky background's I am creating), the old tree, the broomstick, and the rocks. The rest is photography which of course does include the 2 pics of Amy at different ages taken with my Finepix S5000.
Many thanks to the artist's brushes, or 3D items used that I give credit to below, where would I be without them.
A short story - 'It's all about the Love' ...
The old tired witch loved the mother cat, and took notice to follow her, as she appeared distressed. They both soared to the top of the mountain on the trusty old broomstick in search of the mother cat's cheeky beloved kitten.
Eventually they found her perched precariously on a branch of a very old tree! The mother cat knew her loving witch would save her beloved kitten, so set to washing herself and then had a good scratch, feeling safer sitting closely near her.
The old green witch lovingly tried to tempt the kitten away from the spiders web and the occupants within it, by offering her another spider to play with, and as time passed she achieved her mission. You see the witch loved all living creatures, and they responded toward her affectionately.
It is so evident here that the old witch could scare us because we would expect her to after hearing and reading about nasty old witches all of our lives, when in fact she had an abundance of love within her, and is of no threat. She put herself in danger teetering on the edge of that rocky mountain to help the one's she loved.
Once the kitten was saved the witch carefully loaded the felines onto her broomstick, and flew back down the mountain. It wasn't long before she saw her warm welcoming cottage below.
That night all three settled close by the fire, content in knowing they were safe and with the one's they loved. ... THE END
Ok so I am feeling a bit mushy tonight, but hey I thought it would be nice to have a good witch for a change, and always a happy ending :o)

Very cool work! Excellent composition :o)
Jane!! This is marvelous!!! Happy Birthday!! :) And Many More. :)
I like the message that you send us here Dear Jane... It is true that we must not judge people on their look. Many people are more beautiful inside than outside and unfortunately the contrary is also true. I really enjoyed reading your story because it is a real lesson of life for everybody. The witch is scary but very kind and would not hurt anybody. There is a bit of Hans Christian Andersen's The Ugly Duckling... Because the swan is the witch's heart and goodness. I like the words and the image. Your pets adventures are always so nice to follow... :) They are lovely and I always appreciate to see them. As I already told you they are our friends. ;) The witch is superbly painted and the result is even more impressive since you were obligated to use your mouse instead of your tablet. I see here the mark of your tenacity because you have not given up to share this beautiful image with us. Thank you for that Dear Jane. You are an example for all of us... :) Your heart is like the witch's heart: you like people and animals. You are their friend and I think that it is normal that people and animals like you... ;) Thank you very much for the good moments that we spend reading your stories and watching your marvellous compositions. take good care of yourself. Your friend, Philippe
Your works are always so wonderful jane!!! Very, very nice image!!!

Your stories are the ones that we, even as grown ups would like to hear over and over again, Jane. They are so delightful and always bring a cheerful thought even after reading them. They make me smile. As for your works, you have an eye for details and you do these details so amazingly. Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful masterpieces. You bring such pleasant joy to everyone!
This is wonderful work and your story is so heart warming. Thanks for sharing your talents with us.
A spectacular and evoking image! Great colours and effect! The atmosphere here is just splendid, as is the lighting, and I must add how incredible that light aqua colour is in your composition! Enchanting, to say the least!
Quite impressive work my friend. Congrats!
What a lovely story and the art work is reflective of all the dedication you put into it. Very accomplished composition.
