| | | Another painterly effect with the GIMP
Here's another one with a more bluesy feel to it. I hope it's OK to post twice for the same picture. It's just that this is such a great picture to work with! |

I like both of your pictures. Very nice and painterly feeling. Always nice to see some new people posting.

| | | sax to the max
this is my first attempt at a bit of artistic manipulation. I created a few different layers. traced outlines on one, gaussian blre on another and pushed and pulled the opacity and changed layer modes till I thought it looked OK to me.

When it "looks OK to you," you know you're finished.
Keep on creating and experimenting. It only gets more fun from here! |
