This is a I thought bust that sits in somebody's yard along the route my wife and I walk. It's kind of a drab sand color. I figured I could do something with it in PP. Hope you like it and as always, thanks for looking and for any comments you may leave.

Lovely..it has a very ghostly look to it ...you did a nice job and its far from drab now. I love how you matched the framing to the colour as well.

Thanks very much FoG. I was wondering how this would be received.

LOl, I guess it does look rather ghostly. Almost like something in a Hitchcock movie. Thanks Lori.

Thanks very much Mad editor, I was trying to get dreamy or something close to it.
