    Ooo, so cool! Love the colors and textures... not just the pp, but the texture of the brushes themselves. It almost looks like this photo was painted by those very brushes.

    Too weird--I spent my afternoon shooting the corner of my studio where I do some occasional painting--and have several shots that look just like this! (OK, maybe not as good, but they have similar brushes). ;)

    Wonderful light, lines and mood! :)
