Here ML - take a look

Good Morning....Afternoon or Evening....depending on where you live... Hope your all well.....it's been fun catching up on all the great new avatars being created, and a warm welcome to all the new folks joining this wonderful thread.......

OK, so after being in "Squaw Valley" and then going to a little town named Exetor the following day for brunch, that just "happens" to be known for it's beautiful murals, many Indian themes, I think "God" has confirmed for me that that the Indian "vibe" is meaningful to "something" I am supposed to consider.....

I am really feeling the first image SumblimeCraft was kind enough to suggest, I love the reflective nature of the Indian woman in the image, and the beautiful "traditional" clothing, beads, and mocasins/ shoes she is wearing...I also really felt the image of #4, the colors and sky were absolutely beautiful....but she didn't reflect the Indian culture I hope to honor as much as image #1.

Soo here is my vision, can we make the sky or background in image #1 with a less ominous sky? The third bird in the right hand corner is kinda creepy...can we make the sky and background a sunset, a beautiful sunny day?
LOL...and can we add some kind of sparkling water in the signature with the "Avatar Tool Shop " logo ? Maybe might be a fun for the artists submitting entries into the upcoming "show" to have another idea to showcase a more "earthy" logo idea.......

No hurry, no worries....if it "speaks" to any of you ..would be fun to see your "vision".....and Thanks again so much to The Purple One, Fort, and the our newest artist The Furry One....all the images were so great !

Got a GOB of work to do today at the office. But i would love to take a whack at this tonight. I think i can remove the sky section, maybe lay in something more green and full of life. Then probably apply some exposure alterations and a cool filter. Since it is already cartoon, it shouldn't be hard to match it up and make it look more "natural" by doing some rendering details. (for those who like to swap secrets).

I grew up near Exeter. Never particularly liked the people there, but the town is nice.

Those images are beautiful, I agree that #1 says a lot.

I will see what I can come up with for you.

Too cool, I loved the texture, layering and creativity of the images you did for my Indian vision, and some Great things you have done for others here......will look forward to your ideas, I don't think I made it clear enough, or even knew myself at the time I made my original request that being a "feminine" energy was an important part of what I wanted to portray through my avatar.....hope you have a good day...and kick ass at work......

How lovely to have your talent grace this thread again....I Loved the original art you shared earlier in this thread...your tree lady was beautiful...and if I recall, was a sort of self portrait? Very excited to see any ideas that may inspire you......your new avatar is interesting...lol...had to put on my glasses to see it....come in to light, color on your own terms....

Yeah, Exeter is a "trip"....beautiful little town, lot's of money, apparently a high persentage of millionaires, according to my sister, the murals that we saw seemed to portray the agracultural workers that were the "heart" of the success to this community, and some sort of "alliance" between the Native Indians and farmers? I don't know, need to read more about it.......LOL......oh gosh....I have alot to learn and happy to have your input and insight....

reply to post by MountainLaurel


What do you think of this?


I can change it up however you want to, but I thought one bird was enough and the subtleties of her beadwork would "pop" if I colored them.

Yeah, Exeter is strange. Mostly because there isn't really a middle ground: there are very poor people, then there are millionaires. That's pretty much it. Most of the actual native Yokuts got run off to the Tule Indian Reservation. :-/ Now that there is some stability in income due to tribal casinos, they are able to spread off of the rez and back into the valley. So, that's a good thing at least.

Yeah, I'm going to put my avatar back to the MeTree. Just used it as an album cover! This is why I've gone missing.

Awww wow......your "killing" me, in a good way Are you a member of the Yokut Indian tribe or from a farm worker family? I always vote for the Indians, total poetic justice the way they took thier lemons and turned them into lemonaide using the out of the way land they have and turned it into a goldmine, lol, now TPTB want to tax and regulate thier casino's, greedy creeps....

Fun to see the Me/Tree again, what kind of album, music, art, book? Would enjoy knowing more about your project, and wish you much success ....clearly your a talented "soul"...

How can I possibly decide between the 3 new images, you and the Furry One just "rocked it....sunshine, waterfall, sunset.....they all are "perfect".....hope to see some signature ideas that may pull it all together and help me decide......

Although you have indeed chosen a fantastic looking avatar, I dragged these ones out that were posted here a few months ago - If you feel the need to have a change in scenery
