I have been learning a new software and have gotten totally addicted to creating "artwork" with it. Here is my stella-de-oro Japanese style, or what I think looks a little like a Japanese woodcut. Perhaps to you it looks like a 6th grade cut and paste?
Below is the same photo processed as if found in a church.
My problem is that I do not track the steps in my post-production process to see if they can be duplicated in the next photo. I just tweak and tweak until I like the look or hate it.
I think your art work is fabulous. I love tweaking my photos too. That's the fun part of photography for me.
ReplyDeleteOh my - would love to just take photos and download in the size I want. Wish you lived near.
ReplyDeleteReason being - you are one of the reasons for my learning my simple camera. Good Luck
It's fun stuff playing around in Photoshop (or similar), isn't it? :) Looks great!
ReplyDeleteMakes me want to be more adventurous with my photos too!
ReplyDeleteDo you use photoshop?
ReplyDeleteI'm like you, I fiddle about and then the whole thing goes phut and I go back to the mac which lets me do a few simple things.
Oh for the days when a photographer knew what he was doing.
r she, of course.
ReplyDeleteLooks is very important, Tabor... That is what makes us all unique... So many of these photo programs allow us to do all kinds of stuff with our pictures... I personally like the picture to look like it came out of a million dollar camera --by a professional photographer... ha ha

I love to do that. My old art software doesn't work on my new computer, and I miss it.
ReplyDeleteThey both look good, but I like the second one best.
I think Friko and I are related.
ReplyDeleteYes, we do that too so later we hit our heads in disgust. :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun way to spend your time!
ReplyDeleteThat's really cool. I like the second photo that looks like a mosaic.
ReplyDeleteI like to fool around with the computer, but the trouble with it is that it's so clean. I guess that's why I like printmaking. You push color around with your hands and get all covered with ink.
ReplyDeleteWow! Just beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI wonder if I have that program on my computer? Love the first picture best.
ReplyDeleteMarvelous and creative are you! Your photos are balm to an overagitated mind these days. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteThat is so cool. Don't get me started! Literally. It looks like too much fun (on the computer, which I'm already on more than anyone I know.)

ReplyDeletebe careful when you are using photoshop like that. stay away from filters like the ones you have here. everyone in the world uses them and so they tend to be very easily recognizable as well as unoriginal because they were designed by someone else (some other artist.)
ReplyDeletethe actual photo you took looks great though.
