Digital Collage - The Whisperer

This morning I awoke at dawn to go riding at a friend's farm. They raise all sort of unusual animals beside the normal farm yard types. It was cloudy and cool and the ride was the best I have had in a long time. The horses could feel the rain in the air and decided to have as much fun as possible before spending a day or two in the barn.

When I got home and showered I decided to make a digital collage for my friend's sister in law. She stayed home and did chores and had a very hearty breakfast waiting for us when we returned. This is what I came up with. She tends almost all of the family pets, chickens, horses, and exotics. She has such a tender way about her. The animals all adore her.

I used two or three texture layers, the zebra is from an old print, the woman is an image a friend from one of the flickr groups gave me, the script is from the Graphics Fairy. I just played with Photo Shop till I was happy. I hope you enjoy!
