Creative Interpretations - Caladiums

Took this picture of caladiums in my yard. Paint it or punk it... have fun.

I ran some filters (you all know how you play and tinker with them and can't remember which ones?) I do remember distort->glass. The matt and and frame from PhotoFrame.

Mine is not. I cheated... I used Alien Skin Splat for the frame.

Good one Frank

Thanks, Craig

Nan... My frame is from a package called PhotoFrame by onOnesoftware. . I just got the upgrade and love the realistic frames and mattes. They have some tutorials (QuickTime, I think) and 30 day demos of all their stuff.

I don't see PhotoEdges in their website... only something called PhotoFrame Pro

Is this product?

My Bad, Frank ... Photo Frame... I also have the other package called PhotoEdges, but it's for OS 9-Mac and I never upgraded.

Cool photo Swampy and thanks for the play.

Sort of went Gouche on this; a thick watercolor that is. Hope you all like it.

It's bright and colorful. Like the slight touch of texture.

Yes they are, Steve and a very nice boquet from you!

Love the way you desaturated the background! Sure brings out their color!

I have such a black thumb that the most I can hope to accomplish regarding the flora I love is to either photograph or paint. These Caladiums are marvelous. My hat goes off the Swampy for sharing her beauty with us.

This is my humble try.
