This week's Photo Art Friday theme is "the painterly look"......to create something that looks like a piece of fine art from a photograph.
I duplicated the original in soft light, added one of my own textures in hard light 100% opacity, barely removed a bit of it from the flowers. I added another layer of my texture in hard light at 63% opacity and then played with filters. Sorry, I can't remember which filters I used. I think I also used a Topaz Adjust filter that gave it a more painterly look.
Makes me feel like one of the impressionists!
Have a great week and check out the other painterly looks at Bonnie's Pixel Dust Photo Art.
so very pretty and summery. yellow and white just speak "summer" to me. thanks for stopping by my bloggy.

You really did succeed in getting the painterly look all right! Printed out on a textured paper it could "fool" anyone into thinking it was an original watercolour. Very cool.

ReplyDeleteThanks for the links went to them all and now follow two.I especially enjoyed Pixel Photo Dust as I don't use photoshop and was curious how you use the textures.
