    Default Flower abstract - 2000 POST

    This is my 2000 post and I've enjoyed doing them all and learning from everyone else's work. I took a small fragment of a wisteria blur (f/9, .4sec.), stretched it onto a larger canvas to distort the flowers, used a slight dry brush texture and then a major crop, leaving only a small portion to emphasize the curves and sense of motion.

    Thanks for looking. C&C welcome:)

    Nice image and application, Cheryl

    Only comment I have is that there is a "green" fade on the LB about 1/2 way down that tends to pull my eye. Not major, just mention it. The other faded leaves do not have the same effect for some reason. :confused: ;) :D

    Cheryl, congrats on your P2K and thanks for all your posts and critiques! I love the colors and softness of this one and the dark area in the LRC really makes a nice anchor for the image. Well done!
