Re: Pictures of India

So many great pictures Sylvia - but which one to do first?

Here's the first try. Spice Market with an oil paint effect.

I think it's going to be a long, fun day playing with these!

Re: Pictures of India

Went with the nets for a 1st go. I always like Sylvia's photos to play with.

Did some minor prep work then my soft paint preset in Topaz Simplify, blended with 2 color texture layers.

Re: Pictures of India

Some very cool renditions since first posting. I really like Tennie's (post #9) rendition. Anyway, thought I would give this one a Gouache try.

Re: Pictures of India

I really enjoy seeing different parts of our world through different eyes. Thanks Sylvia. Great work everyone. I wasn't sure at all how to treat the picture of the nets...but you all did it so well.
