This is my submission to Karin Jurick's Different Strokes From Different Folks. This one was a fun challenge...Karin added a new twist with this one...To paint the image upside down. Keep the image/photograph inverted from the start - and when you feel you've gotten about 99% done, invert it right-side up, and give it a few final touches. It was really alot of fun. Thank you Karin.
