Good choice and the cards should be interesting. I can use a picture of Cedric's little face and some choice words about people who hit dogs and then drive away.

I have a good one for frustration! I have a photo the eye dr. gave me today, of my eye that he wants to do another surgery on.

It really is a pretty cool photo, if you are into medical details.

Another surgery?? Hope! This has to be the definition of frustration.

Oh crap. Why am I first???

This looks way better IRL - the scanner is picking up the wrong textural parts and ignoring the glitter. :mad: I thought about the psychology of anger before I started on this. There's icy cold anger, but most of the time it's hot - red, fiery, glowing hot, but with dark undertones of destruction. I have a face in the middle of the card, but thanks to the scanner you can barely see it. Darn it all. This thing is really cool.

I love the colors and the textures, but I am also wondering who the picture in the middle is? I can't see one :angel:

Pam, I love your card. I've been planning this in my brain and have something similar in mind. I just don't know if the head and the hands are going to cooperate on this one. Hopefully I'll be able to get to it later today.

Paula - I don't know who the face is - it's just the face of Anger, and her yellow lips are wide open because she's screaming. I really wanted to work in Munch's "The Scream" but couldn't quite get it to work. To me, that painting is the epitome of frustration.
