Miss Gracie
I pulled out a photo of my pug, Gracie, and since I've been playing around with Adobe's plug-in, Pixelbender lately I applied the "Oilpaint" filter to it. I then added a vignette border and tonal contrast in Nik's Color Efex program. The final tweak was a bit of sharpening to the eye and tongue.
Jules, The tongue is outstanding! I really like the treatment and the artistic impression on this one. Gracie is cute as ever!
Hi Julie, I love the tongue and the filtering is very cool. Gracie looks like a lovely dog
Gracie looks adorable, Jules. The filter treament and open tongue give her a rather goofy look.Very nicely done!
wow.. this is outstanding, Julie. I too like the tongue... your use of pb has rendered this a master piece.
Thanks everyone...I'm so glad you liked it. This is one of my first images with the oilpaint filter and I'm rather liking it!
Gracie is lovely. Perfect timing!
Very interesting effect, Julie. To me it looks like an embossed tile
Especially like the tongue!
Miss Gracie is very cute, Julie. I like the impressionistic painterly quality. Great tongue, and the fold like effect you got with PB oil works well with the folds and creases that pugs have.
What I like the most is how the curving lines lead me to the curving tongue--perfect! The soft tones are lovely. I like the darker area at the top--sort of a frame. Very nicely done!
