I left you hanging on by your fingernails, wondering how in the world this gray and black picture will become a useful page to color, with a bright white background and well-defined parts. Were you able to sleep for all the suspense?

Here you can see the piece in progress, with many of the big spaces erased.

Those small spaces are very time consuming. A cursor is not as good as a pencil, and sometimes things just go astray. The way I get precise on those tiny parts is by enlarging it beyond all rational belief.

Photoshop Elements is the program I am using; the specific tools are the magic wand, rubber stamp, and the eraser. (And UNDO, UNDO, UNDO!)

The next step is to add a border. Will you be able to sleep tonight as you eagerly await the next step?
