I"ve got a ton of flowers, none of which i know the name.

Here's one to play with.

e.b. - Beautiful! (both the original and your 'art' version!)...
Here's mine - didn't take a lot of work from the original!
Regards,

e.b. -- thanks for the use of your lovely unnamed purple flower.

My version will be happy among the lovely blooms you've all planted here. Did Select Color Range on a few hues, placed on different layers, and subjected some layers to distortions and pixilations.

Fishboy - very nice - I like the painted look
CJ - now that is ART - very creative, nice!
Here's my second one (and a third to follow - I can't stop playing around)...

and here is a third one ... I started 'experimenting' - ended up with kind of a pop-art version

EB, great pic! Thanks! Great painting too!

Bill C, smoooooth. I like smoooooth! And your “pop art” version is really super!

Fishboy, nice effect...similar to mine (as you’ll see). Great minds...

CJ, OOOooooo! Really nice! Imaginative and well done...looks like a fifties print!

I am tired of purple flowers, since my garden is almost too full of that color at the moment...so I thought I’d change it.
