but substituted half tone for crosshatch

Palms

[chiroka]

styles - watercolor and pastel
photoshop and impressionist

[philbach]

I used Studio Artist + PS crosshatch

Lots of things; blending of Impressionist, Retinex and a few other things.

I needed an image on which to try a frame action... Rolf lost.

E-mail if you'd like to give the action a go.

That is a cool frame Danny. I really like the shadow that is cast.

This is a very cool image to play with, and everyone has done a great job. Here's my effort, mostly done in Painter using a WOW! Wet Acrylic brush.

(Danny, I tried the frame action, and I totally flopped! Got nothing even close to your results. I'll keep trying.)

Beautiful job, Cat.
That was the picture that was waiting to be painted.

(So many colours, for a minute I thought is was a "Jaykita")

Not to worry, Cat...that frame would have detracted from this outstanding work.

FWIW after I ran the action, I messed with Layer Styles quite a bit. The action just builds a basic frame.

cat,

very nice. reminds me of one of those 50's magazines....GQ i think was the name of the one i'm thinking of. they were doing 'modern' back then and yours reminds me of those.

Beautiful, Judy! ByRo was very wrong. Ive always admired your wild and colorful style but would never try to copy it.

[jaykita]

Thank you Ro! Cat!

Hey Cat! No no no! I was just kidding with Roland (and he was too, heehee!) You have a FABULOUS STYLE, all your own! You dont need to copy anybody, least of all me Hey, you are SO TALENTED, GIRL!! And I am in such awe of it! Keep up the great work!

[MargaretM]

Definitely a hunk! My version done in PS - crop and clone background; impressionist charcoal filter; Niks photo effects Monday morning filter and skylight filter;

One more take on this one. Started out as a watercolor but ended up as an oil.
