Wonderful shots, Pavel! I love an open market and we don't have them down here like they do up north.

For the Pepper photo I layed down an under painting using AHB and a chalk brush then came back with a water color history brush to flesh out some detail.

One the Shoe Rack. I ran a sketch filter and then hit that selectivly with a history brush (water color I think). Smart sharpen.

Great Photos Pavel! I will give the peppers a shot later. I found the shoe stand with the plastic sandals (Crocs I believe) intriguing. Problem is, once I downloaded it I didn't know what to do with the image so I dabbled with this and that and came up with this weird

rendition. I'll try and do better with the peppers I promise.

Some more ACE enhance watercolor work (with the help of AAA's Color Blur and Fotofix filters). Here's the complete version.

Ikroll... I gotta put on my sunglasses to look at the ACE version. Briiiiight!

Swampy, love your sketch...
My rendition, impressionist filter, sketch.

I would call this "the end of the rainbow"

Anyone for an abstract shoe tree?

Lonnie, I love your tree.
One thing I do not quite comprehend.... at least half of the shoes disappeared.
Did you take them in lieu of payment for your work

I was not sure what to do with these shoes either...had to improvise.
I borrowed the background from another forum, don't remember there, my apologies.

It's a tough way to make a living, innit? Actually, that mischievous Redfield Face Control filter can do some surprising things...
