Re: Creative interpretations: Haga Parken,Stockholm

jch....Nice touch with the impressionist plugin!

Dan....Love how you have brought all the detail out on the tree trunk! I thought the old tree well worth a photo, it had such interesting shapes and textures on the trunk!

Steve...Sorry to correct you but its not a zoo...thats in Stockholm and i have yet to do a photo shoot there...but i will...
Like the foggy effect on the old building...suits it well.
The statue you have also done well...from what i remember he is trying to light a fire!

Pavel....Like your parrott...he was a lot of fun...very cheeky!

Kiska....Fab...well chosen brush strokes,they give such a nice detail to the fish and i love how you have done the reflection and water!

Patricia.....

Re: Creative interpretations: Haga Parken,Stockholm

Oops....just looked at all those creatures and got carried away.

A park. (Parken.) Must pay closer attention next time.

Nice images anyway.

Re: Creative interpretations: Haga Parken,Stockholm

Steve, Great Zoo and Statue!

Here are two with vastly different approaches.

The Zoo, I mostly in Painter with a reed pen and some diffused water color then brought back to Photoshop and adjusted.

The lady with the pot in the garden was all done in Photoshop. I masked out all the pipes and stuff and added a bamboo background. Did a HSL and Curves and painted the masks for a darker jungle look.

Re: Creative interpretations: Haga Parken,Stockholm

Bet you all thought i would do a flower...here it is!

The yellow hibiscus I did in Photoshop CS2...
Duplicated the image
Separated the flower from the background
Painted the background with the AHB brush and ran Flaming Pears,Flexify on it.
Smudged the flower with Pams water color smudge brush
merged the layers
Lucis art exposure twice and framed with an action...

Patricia....

Thank you, PK! Yes :-) I used a reed pen in Painter. A first for me.
