A word about digital art- love it! Okay that's two words but I have only been at this for four months now (got Photoshop Elements in March of this year) and I have discovered ways to make old things new again! The two digital collages above were made for the Rosie and Linda's Big Art Adventure " A Bird in Hand" being the theme. Both pieces were made from photos that I have taken of flowers from my yard and the birds are silk decorative pieces that I have used in centerpiece arrangements and what- not around the house. "Nothing special "pictures but by erasing out their background , blending them with the floral photos as the first layer and "painting" (for quite some time to get it right) in Photoshop with artistic filters and layers- I came up with two whole new works. Artistic recycling!

Gives a whole new meaning to recycling!
ReplyDeleteI will have to get Photoshop Elements because I love what you do & would love to play. I can't quite do it yet....but it is on my list :)
They are both beautiful Lori.....you have obviously become skilled at using PS Elements. I have a trial copy but I've been beaten by it! I probably don't spend enough time finding out how to use it properly - but I would love to be able to do what you do!
ReplyDeleteThank you for taking part in our challenge.
Linda :-)

These are lovely, my hands down favourite is the yellow bird, if he was up on the wall he would make me feel happy and smile everytime I passed him! Very clever of you. (I can't get the hang of layers on photoshop.)
ReplyDeleteHappy crafting Lori!

ReplyDeleteI continue to be in awe of digital art and am impressed you've only be doing it such a short time with such brilliant results!
