Hi all its been a while since I've posted here, I've been tremendously busy with my job but I haven't stopped doing what I love photography and photoshop :). Anyways here is my latest "photo art". Let me know what you think.

I like the technique you used (care to explain at all?) you could really see "strokes" in it. Good choice of an edge and border as well

I, too, would be interested in the technique.

Is it my imagination or is this flower upside down?

Welcome back. :)

Oh I LIKE that!!

I actually looks like a turn of the century painted photo (you know the ones where they had to paint or draw in the lines of clothes and eyes, hair, lips, etc.)

Very nice!!!

Yes it is a topside view, I thought it brought a unique perspective to it. anyways I didnt follow to much of a technique. I just sat down with the brush and started painting away on it. Went through quite a few layers to get the final effect. Adjusting curves colors, blur, dodge, burn, clone. Just a major amount of brushwork went into this one took about 6 hours to complete. I wasnt quite sure what I wanted to end up with but I just kept working at it till I liked what I saw :). Anyways thanks for the replies.
