Just had to have a play

Very colorful boquet ya got there, Palms. Thanks for the play.

All Photoshop. Pushed pixels around with Filter>Pixelate>Facet. Painted from a history state, did a little dodge and burn then added a texture map.

Well, I just had to post something to let Palms know my heart was in it.

Unfortunately I am still trying to get a decent image using Painter Essentials 4.

This is about as good as I have come up with so far.

Unless you are a "brush and palette" person, this is not much of a program. So unless you are, don't waste your money.

Anyway here it is for what it's worth.

Cassidy thats a great play
Swampy 10/10 very nice
Steve yes i can see you put your heart there, thanks for the head up on PE4, I occasionally think of branching out but then. I think i am quite happy with what i have at the moment and still learning that so why rock the boat

These are gorgeous folks. And I don't say this lightly as I'm usually very much a wildflower kind of person.

Such a lot of colours, I tried to keep them all.
I second Janet with her comments, except I'm not a wild flower person.

You decide. lol

Used Impressionist with Metallic Button preset for this one. Also, I used Irfanview (just found out that Impressionist actually works in Irfanview which is cool; pass this info on to those who have not got it to work in their native editor that is other then Photoshop). Added a hint of glow using Xero's Softmood filter.

Here is one with just filters: Texturizer: Sandstone/Glass, Chrome, Plastic Wrap. I added an outline layer (Desaturate, Dupe, Invert, Color Dodge, Minimum) at the top for a little more definition.

Very nice Gerry, the frame works really well with this image

Thank you for the compliment, Palms. I really love flowers. So many kinds and varieties. We have a few roses in our front yard. This is a far cry from what we had in our old house, 30 years ago. When we were there my wife asked me if I would buy her a rose bush. By the time I finished, we had 2 dozen rose bushes in our front yard and no two were the same color. I really enjoyed them. But that was in the days when I could take care of them. Now I have degenerative disk disease, scoliosis and spinal stenosis in my lower back and cannot get around like I used to. The only flowers I can deal with now are on the computer. But they still give me joy.

Here mind one done in painter essentials 4 the other AHB

Glad to hear you can still enjoy flowers Gerry, Even though i like roses, i don't like all the work that has to go into looking after them, I can t be doing that bad a job though as some of the bushes i do have are 20 years old.

Carb both those are great well done
