painted Skye

just playing around with this one but i liked the effect

I like it a lot too.... Nice job on the digital art Sharon. What did you do to it?

thanks Tracy, i went to dry brush in the filters menu under artistic, then just played around with the sliders till i was happy

It looks very good !!! Well done Sharon

thanks Kathy, funny story goes with this one, I had to take a self portrait for my disabled badge and had nothing to focus on so i told skye to sit in the chair i was going to sit in for the portrait and used her to focus the camera, it was hilarious trying to get her off the chair and pose before the timer clicked the shutter i never intended to use the photo of her, but it turned out ok apart from the blown background

Excellent effect on this Sharon.

Try close cropping it to lose the white background.

Great effect Sharon - nice one................ John

oh, I like that..nicely done!

thanks guys and gals, Stewart it might be fairly easy to select only the white and change the colour, rather than crop, what do you think?

I'd crop myself.
The neck looks too long uncropped.

hmm yes it does look quite long i'll try the crop

cropped



cropped and background colour changed, what do you think?

The crop has improved it somewhat although even tighter might be even better.

The background colour is fine although I still prefer the white.

I like the crop & White background too! :)

I like the crop with the white background Sharon. A lovely shot.

thanks guys and gals, the white one it is then
