Creative interpretations: Grandma Cole's flowers

[DannyRaphael]

We were visiting my wife's grandmother this weekend. At 94 years old she still loves to work in the garden. She's a wonderful lady and an inspiration to all of us.

This is some of her handiwork.

I just hope that I still can walk when I get even close to that age. Thanks for sharing Danny. Also, thanks for the cool flower pick to play with.

Here's the hirez version. Attached is just a thumbnail.

Cropped and painted in Studio Artist.

Such a fine photo and a fine job, Kiska. Had to try one more.

A delightful play, Danny

ArtStudio to simplify. PST using the ArtStudio result as a pattern as well as the original to paint back a little detail.

Beautiful Pansies!! I'm SO envious of anyone with a green thumb. Give your wife's grandmother a hug from me and tell her thanks for the beauty she shares with the world.

Thanks for the play, Danny
@ Janet, I hear you....no green thumb either, rather a "black" one :-)

Now Peter, I see that you are still playing with Luce, successful I must add. How did you achieve this embossed look, if I may ask?

Thanks for sharing Danny.

Your wife's grandmother inspired me also!

I had fun applying filters to these pretty flowers!

[amica999]

Had another try, just fun playing :-)

Another Freebie - Redfileds++ BasRelief - overlay layer and faded opacity a little.

Thank you Amica.

Thanks Peter, will download right away, hope I can get better results as with the native relief :-)

Picture is nice picture and all interpretations are nice.

[Kraellin]

amica, i like your first one. what did you do to get those heavy, raised strokes?

[amica999]

Kraellin, thank you for your kind words. This is a texture layer (actually photographed from a real canvas) It came along with the CS3 wow book.

I thought Grandma might like some cheery fabric for kitchen curtains.
