Photoshop CS2 -- the possibilities are endless with this powerful, professional program. 1.5 years ago when I first opened photoshop 7 it was so intimidating but, I am so glad that I stuck with it and didnt give up. I still have a lot to learn but, I am truly enjoying the process.

What is your best graphics tip or piece of advice?
Take it one step at a time. Have patience with your program and dont give up. Also to achieve realism when creating digital layouts, take time to pay attention to the little touches such as drop shadows, adding a staple, tape or brad when needed to your layouts!
Where do you get your inspiration?
I get my inspiration from my children, the photos that I take of them and also I find much of my inspiration when shopping for clothing and home decor. It is relaxing and the color combinations sing to me. I love color.
