Leaded Glass.

Please don't ask how (so many steps that I doubt I could duplicate it exactly; probably could duplicate the look though). I did start out using EmbossWork's Ice White to start things off. Blended in the sky blue (Cyan) too.

You probably had to shoot this fast, as it looks too inviting to last long.

great picture, wonderful colors.

used my new 32 band gray with a blend mode of softlight, a bit of smudging and erasing to tweak.

GREAT photo and great photo for playing with. I had so much fun with this one, tried all sorts of things before I got to here. Enjoy.

Janet

Compression took a huge toll on this one. Imagine ok. Thanks.

Kiska, you are getting so very good at Studio Artist. I really like this one. It is bold, colorful, and a bit abstract. Great work.

Janet

PSP7 Cutout on FRUIT

Well i tried the cutout plugin on the psp7 program on this picture to see how it would look then i added a canvas texture, not impressed really, as the cutout on Photoshop does it better, but its a okish picture i think!

Yummy photo, PhotoMaster!

Wow, Craig. Love all the yellows!

Ikroll, very interesting effect. I like it!

Steve, Great job. Very subtile and effective!

Janet, I don't think I've ever seen "Craq" applied so subtily! Very old world look

Nice Kiska, especially like the cropping.
---------------
I tried something different. I used "Select Color" to pick the highlights, midtones and shadows. I coppied each selection to it's own layer and applied a different Artistic filter to each, then mergered them all into a single layer.

Took a snapshot then created a "Paper" texture layer for the background then painted back with the history brush from the merged textures layer. I ran the texture filter one more time on the painted layer and faded that back about 50%.
