~Little Cowgirl~
Meet Gracie. I used to be a nanny to three little girls. Gracie is the youngest and was in preschool, Morgan is the next , and Lindsay is the oldest. Grace got out really early since she was in morning preschool so we were pals. I love these girls! 
One night, the girls and their baby brother, Ridge stayed the night. When Ridge went to sleep the girls decided they wanted to play dress up and take pictures for their mom. So, we took a lot of pictures which I lost when my last laptop crashed. For some reason I have this one and I manipulated it and entered it into a photo contest. Gracie has been in the top 15 every single day since I entered her. I made the photo black and white and then I went in and free handed the color on the hat, boots, and shirt. Then I put a black edge on it.

You are very artistic! Remember to add your link everytime you post in the "share your blog" section. I had to do some digging to find you :)

My goodness, what a beautiful blog with stunning posts...the photograph of the cowgirl is super, it's amazing how a splash of colour can turn a great photograph into an amazing photograph...I'm bookmarking you, as I want to return and see more!!!! Keep up the brilliant posts
Hi Heather: great blog. It seems that plenty of artists use black and white photography but few "get it." You do. Keep up the great work.
Heather,
Love this portrait! Very natural pose and I like the way you colored it.
I would keep your creativity going on all fronts like I see from your blog.
As far as a studio is concerned, it will come. Your work will demand it. I have worked on the kitchen table and in a corner in the living room. I did not always have my own room.
You will though.
