@ShannonBiondi - Thank you so much! ️

Got it to work! Thanks so much for the wonderful idea and for being patient so that I could contribute!

@Kevin-Longueil thanks! I’ll try that!

How do I upload my picture? When I click the link, it takes me to the google drive but I don’t see how to add anything.

@ShannonBiondi Yes!! That would be perfect! Thank you!!

Awe man! I just saw this! I’d love to participate! How firm are you gonna be with that deadlines?

@chrisaakins- Sorry I’m so late getting back on here. Did you figure out the layer merging? The new image looks great! It really has a sense of foreboding & it feels like he’s fleeing whatever the shadow is.

@chrisaakins This is so great! Love the detail & colors! I think the issue with the pose is it pulls your eye to the left, but then there’s nothing catch it or to pull it back onto the canvas. What if you scoot him over to the right & have something appearing in the direction he’s looking. A small school of fish (swimming back toward the center), an ominous light, etc. it doesn’t have to give away the surprise of the prey.

@Chip-Valecek Whoa! There was some AMAZING stuff in there!!!

@Will-Terry, I was so sad to hear this. I can’t fathom what a loss you are feeling or how hard this must be for you. I saw your fb post the first night but have felt unable to come up with any words that would offer any but the thinnest. consolation.
What I can offer is this, you have touched the lives and hearts of many, many, people. We are all thinking of you and praying for you. And we will be right here waiting to welcome you back when you are ready to return.
Also, I work at my church, and I send out a series of books to members when they have a loved one die to help them through their first year. I’d love to share that ministry with you if it’s something you’d be interested in. You can message me here or on Facebook. (Alicia Sober)
