Creative Interpretations - Alley Way

Swampy · #1 12-21-2007, 07:54 AM

You all know how I love to paint old buildings LOL. Here's a fun Alley Way.

Mostly done with my PST Tute 102.

Street scenes and architecture seem to be my favorite subjects. This one uses the ahb.

Here you are wandering down those dark little alleys again. Must say though that this one looks a bit brighter.

Just beautiful, Alan and Steve. I guess being a country girl the approximation of close neighbors holds a certain attraction for me, guys. There is also some mystery in a desire to know what's behind those doors and windows.

Really nice photo. I turned up the color, added some texture and a few brush strokes.

Just playing about with median and vivid light

Swampy · #9 12-26-2007, 08:12 AM

Cassidy, that is very unusual. I like it!

Swampy · #13 02-25-2008, 03:59 PM

Peter and Kimlou... Nice. Kim your colors are so vivid!

kimlou · #14 02-25-2008, 04:32 PM

I thought vivid colours was the way to go for this one. Glad you like it.

Lots of nice renditions here.. Swampy you have a way of finding things that bringing the best out of the RetouchPro folks

Been down a few ally ways like this a long time ago.. but as I remember they looked more dark and sullen way back then and not quite as pretty as your original

Swampy · #18 02-26-2008, 07:29 AM

Alex... wonder night scene.
Pavel... you picked up some great textures.
OB... LOL... Where were YOU hanging out? As far as picking out subjects to paint, most folks know I am a sucker for old buildings, stucco walls, wrought iron trims, shuttered windows. There is some fascination and desire to know what lives are like behind the walls.

Finally getting around to this one - just an Impressionist quickie. Thanks for finding it, Swampy.

Swampy · #20 02-26-2008, 11:59 AM

DC... sometimes "quickies" are the best! LOL Yours is great!

mikajomc · #21 02-27-2008, 10:58 AM

alex-love the blue!
pavel- fabulous texture
OB-great grunge
dc- nice job! -I can't quite get Impressionist to do what I want yet

Here's mine- gert and Photoshop.

kimlou · #22 03-03-2008, 06:41 PM

I knew I'd end up coming back to this one!

Swampy · #23 03-03-2008, 08:24 PM

That's very nice, Kimlou. I like the way you have played of the highlights and shadows.
