    Default Weekly Theme: Cosmic Seagull

    Started with an ocean sunset picture, and followed Denise's mini-world instructions. After some experimentation, touched up the cloud area of original image to make it a complete ring after polar coordinates. Then used Liquify filter to create the patterns throughout the rings - that was a lot of fun . Cut out center, added clouds (render/clouds) - thanks Kerry for that idea - soft brushed in stars for BG and then added seagull image.


    C & C always welcome & appreciated,

    - Brendan

    Brendan, I love this! Excellent creative and OOTB thinking. Nice use of the Liquify filter, the strokes are nicely placed and result in a very artistic look. Good one!

    Very creative, Brendan. I like the seagull in the center and the cloudy, starry BG. Nice work!

    Thanks for looking folks! Appreciate the feedback. I did have fun doing this one, and was inspired by all the other mini-worlds you guys are doing. I hope you got a bit of a laugh from the seagull too!
