I made this with my iPhone, it's an ornament on my Christmas tree. I probably used Snapseed for the original cropping etc. and then Plastic Bullet I think. I took that image today and used Artista Haiku on it. I brought it into CS6 and applied 2 Swoon the Moon textures, one redish/goldish colos and one green which I masked off of the face, and created the red border. I added tiny stars to the catchlights in the eyes as one already had a star shape. Wow it looks more yellow here than it did in Photoshop!

Judy, this must be a gorgeous ornament. I really like the textures (and I like the yellow tint). It'd be nice to see this before the textures

Judy, a very creative image, with a delightfully whimsical result! I brought a big smile to my face. I find it remarkable that you are able to start with an iPhone image, and then make all of the textures and filters and special treatments work together so well to produce such an interesting result. I love the twinkle in his eyes!

Thanks Cheryl! Here is in image that has the starting image I used for Haiku and the Haiku filter without any textures over it. I'm also going to post the finished one with a little shift in color of the gold texture.

A slightly altered repost with a little less yellow.

Judy, thanks, I like them both. It's amazing what the Haiku did to the image. Image - doing all that on a cell phone

Judy, you are making some great images with that phone! They remind me of early 20th century illustration art. Thanks for showing us the original and the steps along the way. Great job!

[Anita Bower]

I agree completely with what Kerry wrote. You are doing great work with that little phone of yours. I like both versions.

Thanks Kerry and Anita! It's so much fun!
