{Too bad both the Jets and Colts lost. Congrats Saints!}



Most got the concept but a few did some outstanding work considering it was their first project in Photoshop.

As in he/she is an individual of significant importance.

The reference comes from great men/women of importance like Alexander the Great of Macedonia or Alix of Hesse. To celebrate in my own weird way the importance of being “Alex” I’ve added a new brush and wall papers.

You can find both brushes and wallpapers in my Little Gifts section. Enjoy and have a safe holiday this week.
