Poinsettia Painting

[denise ippolito]

I took an in-camera blur of a pink Poinsettia and added some textures. One of which I got off the web as a freebie and the other I created using brush strokes and color. Blended them till I liked the way they look. I was going for a soft romantic -old world painted look.

I love the texture in this one! And the pink color. Mission accomplished. It does have an old world look.

Hi Denise, very nice effect. The color and the texture comes together well in this image

I really like the abstract feel and colors in this one Denise.. the wispy texture is very pretty :)

You hit the jackpot with the old world look - it's lovely, Denise. I really like how light the texture is in the BG of the flowers petals...very nice!

Hey Denise, Happy new year! I initially didn't like this image much. I then decided to blow it up to full screen and look at for a while, and it clicked. Very nice!! I love the texture and I like the depth created by the colors and textures. I also like your new 2010 signature.
