Project 2 :: roses

Created for Paint Sketch Play - an online class with Marie Otero at Love to Photoshop

 

After trying a couple of photos I found I liked this technique best when I tried it with an old botanical illustration. I really like the edges - it looks like they've been drawn with ink. And I like the subtle color variations. I varied the blending modes and played with levels adjustments a bit along the way. I see lots of interesting possiblities with this technique.

 

Here's the image I started with from the Library of Congress

The texture is from Playingwithbrushes
