LeAnne gave us the opportunity to showcase the color Pink in our Flower Art Friday entries in support of Breast Cancer Awareness month. Here is the piece that I created:
Now let's move on to Bonnie's (Pixel Dust Photo Art) - Photo Art Friday where the optional theme this week was, "Figure/s" I have two pieces to share with you this week.
I started with this photo:
This Tiki God is located on the Whitman College campus here in Walla Walla (see previous post for more on the college campus).
After cropping the photo I added a layer of Bonnie's texture: Ancient Treasures. I really like how it added a bit of mystery to the photo.
I added the Sketchy Frame and Background on Pic Monkey.
Next up is a piece that I just did today after being inspired by one of Bonnie's pieces.
I remembered that somewhere I had a Public Domain photo that I saw somewhere (sorry I can't remember the source) and decided it would look great with some added texture work. So I re sized the photo uploaded it to Pic Monkey and then added Bonnie's new texture: Heartache by the Numbers - Multiply 100% and rotated it.
Next I added a layer of RH West texture: Solstice also at 100% and then used the Boost feature to add just a bit more intense color. Added frames and called it good.
Have a great weekend.
all of these images are stunning~!
ReplyDeletethe flower isn't one that i'm familiar with but i love that pink color and what an interesting form.
the tiki "figure" does look mysterious and dramatic. well done~!
and the last shot has a great feeling of fun and celebration about it.
so happy to see what you've done this week.

Love your flower and photo art!
ReplyDeleteI love that flower at the top and also how you used my texture, all these are great Ida, well done :)
ReplyDeleteYour processing on the tiki statue really made him pop. Nice work on all the pieces.
ReplyDeleteI like the first one - unusual arrangement and I like the last with the happy dance. Enjoyed this.
ReplyDeleteHi Ida, love how the pink flower cascades to the side, and what great pieces of art for Phot Art Friday, love the second one!
ReplyDeleteOh..I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your "Figures" piece, Ida! It works beautifully with that background.
ReplyDeleteDen första bilden hård. Den sista bilden mjuk.Snyggt. Ha en trevlig helg.
ReplyDeleteImpressive Ida! I particularly like the last one and how you rotated the texture to have the word 'amour' appear between two of the figures. Thanks for sharing your process and for linking up with Photo Art Friday.
ReplyDeleteThat rich and beautiful flowers ... great colors, I like that hope.
ReplyDeletewow! these are all wonderful. the hope piece is beautiful and your interpretation of Bonnie's theme is awesome!
ReplyDeleteJust wonderful! All of them!
ReplyDeleteIda,
ReplyDeletethese are spectaculicious!! I love the transformation and the added information you've so generously provided.
I also love how you say "called it good" as I think sometimes that is the hardest thought to focus on.
YAY for YOU!!
I didn't know you lived in Washington!
ReplyDeleteAnd I love the tiki!
All great chouces today, Ida. Your photo editing skills are getting better and better. The pink flower is particularly well done.
ReplyDeleteWow Ida, I love what you did with that last piece. Very artistic. It's inspiring me to try to create something like that in fabric!
ReplyDeleteThese images are beautiful - rich colour, interesting textures and glowling light. The last one is so happy and joyful too!
ReplyDeleteI'm not familiar with the pink flower but it's exotic and beautiful. I love your editing on these photos - you've added a real mood to the Tiki shot, and the last shot is so full of joy, it just lifts me up. Nice job Ida. I hope you have a wonderful weekend.
ReplyDeleteI really like the pink flower and the Tiki god but that last one is just too, too cool!! :)
ReplyDeleteThe pink flower is beautiful and I really love what you did with the dancing figures!
ReplyDeleteIda I especially love this last work of art with the public domain figures. You did a super job processing this and love how it turned out. I have never looked in to these public domain pictures, but looks like a great source. This really turned out superb!!!
ReplyDeleteI love the dance!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous pink flower. I don't think I have seen that before.
