All different

Wildlife at night!
Another piece on CARB-on A4 black paper. I used stencil for the deer. The rest is a circular foam brush.

 Flower field!
This piece was a happening. It was a photo poster from the start that I scraped away the image. Then I used it as black and white art. A week ago I painted it with gold and blue Tempera color. And was lost. :(  After using the foam brush on the CARB-on paper I decided to make a Flower field. I was inspired by a real one in a farm outside my town. Lots and lots of flowers, Poppy and many others. So, this is an interpretation of that colorful field.


Autumn avenue
This is an avenue outside my town leading to a Mansion. I photographed it a couple of days ago. This time I did not use photohop for the edit. I have another one called Topaz. The filter used was oil paint.

Using CS5, NIK collection  and Topaz filters.

Thanks to Stanley Hattman for suggesting BW for this place. Even if it was not that easy. A bit too much texture made it look dirty at first so a bit of "handiwork" was needed.


See more from this place  Fire ruin lens flares in the photo blog.
And also the post before this one on this blog. #Ruined or...."

SOOC original
© NF PhotoArt 180327


Today I share the finished piece as well as the SOOC, Straight Out Of Camera. I worked in both Topaz and CS5 photoshop, 3 different filters and blendings. Kind of Mix and Match.
    

When I took the image I had to go down on my knees to get the lens flare right.

This place was burning many years ago and from what I am told nobody was injured.
