First off, here's wishing all you who follow me a Happy New Year!  I hope the coming year treats you all well!

For those of you who have been keeping up with my daily updates this month, you've probably noticed that I've been doing a manipulation each day as part of the #TheArtOfManipulation's challenge for the month of December.  I've just finished my last piece a few hours ago, and I must say that I feel pretty accomplished.  Getting one done each day this month was an astronomical feat, considering how busy I was with the holidays and some end of the year graphic design work!  In spite of all the hard work (and a few late nights), the challenge was well worth my time.  I've certainly gotten a lot better and a lot faster at making manipulations.  

So, without further talking on my part, here's the roundup of all 31 manipulations.  They're in order from first to last, so if you missed one, here's your chance to see how much I've improved from just one month really working on my skills in this area.  My improvement meme is here: [link]

 

Many, many thanks to all the stockers who provided the images I needed to accomplish this massive undertaking!  

Next month?  I'm going to commit to a photograph a day! Possible oldies but goodies - have to see if I can figure out this business of scanning negatives... I have a lot. o_o Plus, uploads of my graphic design work from December!
