This digital artwork intrigues me. Does it come under art or photography or is it recognised as an art form in itself, other than purely for the pleasure of looking at it? It looks like something I?d like to get into but, if I did, I wouldn?t know where to start or what I?d do with it when I?m finished. Is it as simple as taking an existing photograph and photoshopping it or can you create something from scratch? Do you need a special programme for it or just one of the everyday bits of software we ordinary folks use for enhancing our photos? Sorry for all the questions :icon_redface: , but I?ve been pondering over this since I first saw your pics.

They certainly have an atmosphere about them. Spooky, even. How was the Ancestral Signs one created i.e. were the signs on the tree added afterwards or did you find the tree like that?
