Ann is right, I loved this drill, hope to see more of them with more poet and artist participation. My process is not nearly as skilled in the medium as Sharon's. I don't even know how to blend, do layers. After reading the prompt and Ann's poem, I copied both photos, put them both side by side, reduced them to the same color value, embossed them...trying to enhance, highlight the "royal gold" in Ann's poem, maintain what I thought looked like a "tong" in the chair backs, then I cut and pasted it all into a new document trying to connect as many lines in them as I could to make it flow. I added the eyes just because I always add eyes if given the opportunity and "coochy coo" gave me it to me...little did I know we were talking potato eyes. : ) Fun! I was way off on interpreting the tongs and royal golds but my mama taught me to say, "I had a good time". : ) And I did. Let's do it again soon. I so miss responding to poems and prompts with SCR and 14 by 14 no longer with us.

Thanks!
Pat
