Where's Tony Bennett when you need him?

Looks like SF to me too. Great City!

Re: Creative Interpretations - Row Houses

Looks like we all had similar ideas for this one. I like them all, no favourites.

Re: Creative Interpretations - Row Houses

I know it is not a Painting, Sketch, Oil, or Watercolor but it is artsy..

Does anyone do Copper Tooling anymore?

This is the result of an accident.. When I went to difference mode I noticed that with a little refinement it might look OK.. Soo, I went off in a totally different tangent..

Hope you like it.

Re: Creative Interpretations - Row Houses

There are a couple layers using this Copper/Bronze image I found on the web a long time ago...
A larger version of the copper picture is here:

The rest is just your picture and PS7 filters N brushes.. except for the color layers for the mat for the frame (but I don't count that because I used an action for the frame thingy)

It was fun doing even though I did get sidetracked, but that is normal for me any how

Re: Creative Interpretations - Row Houses

Thanks, OB. I guess copper is my favorite color. I used copper for my carpet color throughout my house. It is so easy to live with and goes with just about any accent colors.

Cool Guilded Copper texture OB; been on a metallic binge myself of late and may borrow this texture for some things later. Thanks for sharing.
