Creative interpretations: Kids sharing Watermelon

Could you ask for a cuter picture?

Have fun...

No, I couldn't ask for a cuter picture. Thanks for sharing.

Here is a watercolor done with PSP8 and the Watercolor script.

Attempted a sketch for the first time. Added noise and textures to the de-saturated image and merged with the original in overlay mode.

Danny--You're right--this is a darling pic. The body language was wonderful.

Svsg--The black and white with the colorized watermelon was a great idea--wish I'd thought of it. It has terrific impact.

I went with my impressionist soft smudge and then used photographic edges for the border.

Svsg, interesting interpretation. I like it.

Cheryl, Nice smudge and the vignette is a nice touch.

Nothing fancy here. Just another watercolor. This time done in PS7. Used cutout, smart blur, and a texture filter.

Thank you for such a great picture to start with, DannyR!
svsg - I really like the sketch effect with the only color being that of the watermelon.
Cheryl, I like softness you achieved with your impressionist soft smudge.
Catia, I like the clarity you achieve in your watercolors - very nice!
I was in a sepia mood, so I went with it...

Cute Picture and very nice entries by all.

I used Amphisoft, Nik and layer styles to do this along with several layers and masks.

Nice sepia Anna. The frame is a nice touch.

LQQKER. I really like this result. I usually don't care that much for crosshatch textures; but, this one really complements your treatment.

Really nice touch with that image. I like the way you brought the vividness of the colors up.

Re: Creative interpretations: Kids sharing Watermelon

Super shot, great image, but i get the impression that the sharing isnt that equal and someone is putting "him" straight
