This was from a photograph that we took in Cornwall Dec 2007. It was dark and drab with converging perspectives. A cut out in Adobe Photoshop allowed me to place it on a different sky that I cropped off another photograph. Then I worked on it in Corel PainterX.
The finishing coat was a digital coat of varnish
I was pleased with the result.
A poppy taken from the Painter Magazine was played with using the gloopy and the texturiser brushes. I love the vibrant colours of this one.
A real playtime here. I dabbed liquid ink blobs with ground trees and sky in mind. That was 1/3rd pale greens 1/3rd browns and black 1/3rd mauvey blue with a yellow sunblob.
Blenders and distortion brushes were used and the image hose added leaves and flowers once all the blending and distortion began to offer a suggestion of a woodland. I really had fun with this.
