Beautiful image, love the depth and use of Illustrator with this. Looks like a kind of Pandora's box - that swoosh near the bottom is cool!

Fantastic imagery, author. Love that warp tool! And the flood filter is ultra cool - I 'flooded' my house and sent it to relatives... heehee - faked 'em out! Great chop and sbs - too bad it has to come as a reaction to the actions of lowlife scumbags who apparently have swarmed this site.

Who else knows about Vizcaya? I had my final exam (for a graduate course in scene design that I got permission to take in my senior year at UM) at Vizcaya, and while in the Concert Band, played some concerts on the grounds. Nice chop, it's humorous and a bit eerie at the same time. I like what you did with your photo of the mansion.

Look it up spelled this way: 'bustle'. I had the chance to work at an ad agency whose office was in a renovated 3-story Victorian house. Our first Christmas party, the staff wore rented attire of the age - the ladies wore dresses with the bustles - believe me, using the ladies' room was a challenge! Serious fun, tho.
