is it real or is it painted —- Rani macaw

Remember when there was the commercial, ‘Is it real or is it Memorex?”  Well this one picture is just that, real or digitally sketched.  I know it is digitally sketched, 92 hours worth, but Dan thought impossible, and only the background was altered!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nope, it is digitally sketched, with a sketch pad hooked up to a computer.  I took the original photo and Wijnanda Benneker fell in love with it (who wouldn’t????) and wanted to digitally sketch it for her portfolio and because she loves corgi dogs.

This is the result.  She is proud of it, and so am I, and so is her company, Corel.  What do you think?  If only Rani macaw or Kaley~corgi could speak and truly smile, I think they would!

92 hours, digitally sketched ——– that is a long time of devotion —- no matter how many hours, I am sure I could not do such a fine job, and surely I would not even attempt!  Thank you again, Wijnanda.

hehhee, we get to be the talk of the town, even you kaley~corgi.  I mean i am the one that really does talk!
