Part of me thinks that I should apologise for the fact that not an awful lot of work went into this ATC.
And part of me thinks that if I added anything to this beautiful "Elder" image ... well I would ruin it!
He is so lush and I am so grateful to TMTA for giving me the opportunity to dust him down! He is my favouritist ever SA stamp!
So I have water coloured him a bit and added a vintage text border stamp to the bottom and a dash of gold Krylon around the edge!
The theme is Cowboys and Indians ... Why no cowboys? I hear you ask! Well I was always the indian ... sadly my brother was the only person in our house to own a sheriffs badge ... so he got to choose ... it was n't all bad ... I got to wear a poncho :0)

Wonderful ATC. Great old face.
Linda, what a creative and beautiful ATC. I actually almost used an image of Sitting Bull myself. I don't think the effort is the important thing. I think the result is in art. This is lovely.

Such a fab stamp, great ATC
i agree with you - any add-ons would have ruined it...

Lovely image, silly to mess with something that is right already!!
LOL - I was always the Indian squaw!! I had 3 brothers... didn't stand a chance of ever being a cowboy and they used to lie to trees and leave me there!!

that is amazing!!! the detail is so lush! i love it can u tell haha
he is kinda ugly(if you know what I mean) but not to bad for an old man, its a great piece of artwork linda xx
Some images just beg to stand alone and a true artist knows this....as you do!! Very evocative and "quiet" piece.
This is great just as you've done it... what a fantastically detailed stamp.
Less is definitely more! Great ATC and a Happy New Year x
Linda I am feeling guilty now for calling him ugly, sorry about that, what a horrid friend I am and hope you forgive me xx
wow
What I like about your peices Linda - is that you always come up with something different - just love him ....
