Cartoon Fun--Warning--Dog Pictures added
Being a bit under the weather today---and the weather not so great this afternoon, I decided to play with a photoshop plug-in.
Since some of Baja looks so surreal, I turned a couple of pictures into cartoons just for fun.
I kept seeing Wiley Coyote and the Roadrunner running around.

It is fun and this plug-in has several programs---a very good watercolor, oil painting, etc. Think I will enjoy it-- I am wondering how one will
print. That should be interesting.
Sure wish I could paint like this!

Dude, that's Wile E. Coyote. Some things are important and Warner Bros. is one of them.
3rd one is nice.

The "E" Stands for Ethelbert.
Here is the opening statement in Wile's suit against ACME Co. for injuries sustained in the use of their products.

I love the photos. I waste HOURS foolin' with the infinite manipulation that is possible now.

OMG---what a TERRIBLE mistake. Wilie E is one of my favorites! This is awful! It was Roadrunner who made me do it.
Vgabndo-----that lawsuit is really great! Loved reading it. Coyotes are so cool. My very favorite books are based on conversations that a
Unitarian Minister has with a very real minor diety---Coyote. Very funny and very thought provoking.

Nena, it has been a very long time since I thought about Betty and Veronica----why either one of them wanted Archie is beyond me.
danaeb---I will work on that! Should be fun and what is a Baja thread without a picture of some fur babies.

The pictures are cool Diana. At Costco you can bring in a photo and they will transfer it to a canvas stretched over a frame like a painting. It's
pretty cool. I think many of your photos, original or done with the watercolor or painting effect would, look good like that. I think these would look
good too or as a tile. This is a photo my friend had done from her trip to Venice.

I like that photo a lot. I have wanted to try one of those Costco canvas prints. Thanks for sharing that.
Tile---I love the idea of some pix is this mode on tiles. Yes, I can see it---a series of accent tiles! How can that be done? I am so ignorant
about artsy things.

I'm not artsy but I do google, A LOT! here's the search I did on your behalf, photo transfer onto ceramic tile, and there's even YouTube videos on how
to do it. Good luck, lol.

My first thought was that they would make beautiful stained glass work.
I love the injured paw photo. Too precious.
The coyote shot reminds me of our Coydog, Mooney.
