Waters Edge

I did a couple of blur effects then a few brush strokes to get this effect. The original image had a painterly feel to the water - that was my inspiration

Excellent water color Denise,
I like this very much as presented...I like the rear capture with the bird looking to the side...this has a very good feel to it...well done...:cool:

Nicely done, great effect, Denise. I think it could go a little lighter.

[denise ippolito]

Fabs, Do you think this is light enough?

[Fabs Forns]

Yes. much better!

[Julie Kenward]

Beautiful, Denise! The muted colors look even better.

Hmmm- both versions are really nice. If given a choice, I think I'd like the lighter water and green/black rocks, but keep the bird a tad darker. Still the 2nd one works for me.
