Congrats! Amazing photos!

Is Sleepless Beauty a photograph? Or a digital painting that used photographic elements? Is there a difference?

BTW, congrats Jan, truly great work from someone with great talent.

Congratulations, beautiful images.

wow - amazing work

Congrats, Jan! You know what you're doing so there's not much else to tell. Great pieces! :)

Thank you so much!

Oh, looks like Jan true master!
