Works of Art designed by Yours Truly

The following are a few examples of the variety of works I have created using Photoshop.

A poster that was used for collecting baby bottles a few years ago:

A few dreamy flowers:

And in honor of something exciting...

Baby R-2 months old

Baby R is growing quickly! She was a bit fussy but we managed to get some cute shots before she began crying and fussing too much! Enjoy!
