tulips

[Nasturtium]

Playing around with Corel Painter Essentials (it's a pared down version of Painter...like Elements is a simpler version of PS)

Also messing around with Post Workshop...there's lots of little hidden nuggets I still need to explore.

Please don't rehost my original. You can do whatever you like with your edit.

Thanks for sharing and the play Nancy. Kept it simple water on textured paper.

OK; how about a splash of effervescent Kool-aid too. Click below for complete rendition; attached is a lower quality crop.

Lyle...that appeals to me on so many levels...love it!

I liked your pic Nancy, though it feels strange to be doing tulips while the ground outside is covered in snow.

First, I applied a setting from Topaz B/W in a hand tinted mode, next did a AHB of that, then applied a texture over that.

Lyle-I agree with Veronica your edits are so appealing
Veronica-your edit is so elegant.

Maybe strange .... no snow here yeat so I saved some of my pictures from the tulip gardens last spring to edit in the dark of winter

Since I was reading the forum on my iPad, I messed with your photo using Nik Snapseed. Of course I had to email it to myself and come over to the desktop to attach it here... ;-) There's probably a way to work around that by uploading directly to some gallery but I didn't mess with it.

Cool edges. Yes, Snapseed rocks. I messed with a picture and tried to upload it to Flickr but only the Flash uploader seemed to be available. I think you're doing better than me though bcs I don't think I've managed to even login to RTP on my iPad...

Almost PMed you a nasty Nancy since I first read that you said appalling. lol

On second though..... lol

I concocted a new technique that I call ceramic glaze. Even so, my flow had to be quite modified for this one so the flow's not ready for prime time. Hope it fakes a glazed ceramic well enough though.

[plugsnpixels]

That almost looks like Filter Forge Lyle!

[lkroll]

Which one Plugs; curious. By the way, the link to the tut is here, but I had to do an iterative process to get it too look like glossy ceramic for this result.

[plugsnpixels]

Hard to say offhand since there are thousands-! But it looks like one I've seen, probably under the Creative category.

Created a new AOP that I posted here.

How...how...Wonderful! Lol. Tulips & beercaps lolololol

[lkroll]

Well, the bowl games are coming up, so thought I would get prepared Nancy. lol

[lkroll]

Hated my last AOP so splurged a lot of money (55¢), at least for me and scanned actual NECCO Sweethearts (actually long gone now, but virtually they will always be here; lol) to create a new AOP and used it for this result. Click link below for complete rendition.

A nice, simple image, Nancy. It's all about the colour, I think, so the KISS primciple applies: underpainting, glowing edges and a curves tweak.

[Nasturtium]

Lyle - you are a sweeheart

Crapaud - thank you, very nice edit

Some of you all already know that I lost my marbles a few years ago. These are sort of how they looked like (I know; smaller would have been better, but I like big marbles).

Who really knows what one sees in the reflections Nancy. lol
