Artarazzi - Girl

Vron has given us a wonderful image to work with this week. I extracted the moon and the girl, and superimposed them on a painting by Atkinson Grimshaw. The moon was colorized and resized. The girl was colorized and resized, posterizing effect was applied, and some tweaking with light and contrast. Thanks, Vron. Great challenge!

  11. Oh Bev...I just love this one SO much! I love everything about it! Thank you so much for the encouraging comment you left me about the art challenge I did. I'm so haphazard when it comes to PhotoShop! I don't really know what I'm doing, and I just wing it! Anyway, your kind word meant a lot to me!

    Big Hugs,
    Lori
