New To Faa

Hi to everyone. Just wanted to introduce Bamalam Photography to the forum. I'm Cherie, and photography has always been my passion; capturing the world with my little Canon DSLR, and spending too many hours in Photoshop. My mother, Jean, is an artist who was forced to abandon her easel because of arthritis. She has recently rediscovered her passion through digital. Her work is created with a quite unique free hand method in a very basic Elements program (she is not technically minded and prefers her art program as simple as possible, needing only coloured pixels and a mouse to make her art).
We're not in any hurry to upload our work. When I've filled our free space I'll be upgrading and working on a website.
My work ranges from colourful florals to grainy black and white hinges, beach scenes and boats to still life. Mum's art will include her lovely little British bird studies and vibrant abstracts.
I'm trying to get the hang of keywords here, and, hopefully, by the time I've set up a diverse gallery of images, I will have mastered it!

Any advice or useful links would be really appreciated by a newby.
