I tried the 'Photo to Artwork' steps to see how it would work on a flower. :D
105 mm macro, f/22.

Nice pale sketched look. I like the hint od color and the composition.

[Christopher Miller]

Nice composition, Barbara. I really like the sketched look you achieved. I think this might look even better with a totally clean BG behind the flower. Well done.

[Mark Fuge]

Nice image and application, Barbara.

Agree with Christopher on the BG. I might also add just a tad more contrast.

But ... your image ... your vision.

I like the COMP and the sketch look. I feel that either the brown outlined things (???) need to be lightened and softened or the flower needs to be saturated and darkened a bit as the two do not make sense to my brain as presented. Agree with ix-naying the BKGR.

Thanks for the feedback everyone. This was a pink lilly with very dark stamen and this was a first attempt at a sketch look. The image had some mild texture applied and I should have tried this experiment on the image w/o the texture perhaps. :)

Hi Barbara,
I like the sketched look but agree that it would work better without the BG texture.
Best,
Nicki
