| | | Re: Creative portraits: Just 4 Palms - More curly I sort of goaded Palms into doing a smudge of this one, and a good job of it was done. So I had to try in myself (better late than never).
Its a little rough, but I think I'm getting there a little.
Thanks Palms, I know now what you went through with this one.

| | | Re: Creative portraits: Just 4 Palms - More curly I always liked this one...
I started with Mike Warren's Illustration Action, then applied some Impressionist plugin effects and ePaperpress.com actions for the borders. |

| | | Re: Creative portraits: Just 4 Palms - More curly Palms, I like the color, the rich colors are so pretty.
I did a watercolor,
3 layers in Photoshop with different presets form a Filter Forge filter I'm working on, just masked out what I didn't want. |
