Sunday Postcard - Striped Legs



I had some fun with this one. The image (outrageously altered) is from Suzee Que at Flickr free-to-use images. The butterfly was Googled.

I painted her in ArtRage using metallic paints (digital). She is wearing hot pants and striped tights. The song .... well, I kinda stole that from an oldie "It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing (Doo-ah, doo-ah etc etc)". This was a song made famous by the late and very great Ella Fitzgerald.

Thanks to the ladies at Sunday Postcards for a fun challenge.
