Creative Interpretations - Florence Bridge
Many possibilities here.

I did a lot of Topaz Simplify and used the PST with a Nagel Spatter brush.

Re: Creative Interpretations - Florence Bridge
Nice job Dee. I was in Italy last December, and we took the train from Montecatini to Florence to see the Uffizi Gallery, beautiful city, but it was really windy and cold.

That is just beautiful. I don't understand what you did with it, but I can recognize beautiful work when I see it. And this is beautiful.

Re: Creative Interpretations - Florence Bridge
Interesting space utilization and additions to the Bridge.. I wonder what kind of permissions they needed to build the little custom made cubby hole pop-outs!

Just some simple relief work from me
