Description


Everyonce in a while I've got to fire up Apophysis and play around. Using the suggestions from three_grrr (Rita) i managed to get the base image I like. The longer I looked at i, the more I realized it was lacking something - That something was my own personal touch. So I fired up Paint Shop Pro and proceded to modifile the base image. The more I looked at this, the more I realized that it sometimes resembles the cobwebs that we have in our minds, cluttering up our thoughts and making simple decisions hard. I hope you like the analogy and like me, do something to get them dusted down. For me, it's modifying an otherwise good image into something that is completely different. I do it just because I can. It brings me back to my roots when I first started uploading here - taking a photo and playing around with the various filters. Take care and have a great Wednesday! Mike Thank you all for the comments and faves for the previous image, 'She Dances alone'. I really appreciate them. FYI - for those of you who have been following Justin Hewins' progress, he's back home after a short visit to the hospital and doing well. I've also sent a SM to Dave (Magnus073) to see how things are over there with his father. I hope to hear from him soon.

happy to hear all is ok with people... cool to go back and play around with what you learn long ago. I love the way i could turn photos into toons or make people int bricks; but I saw people did not like them much so I do what I do but it is fun to do what you doing too

A terrific and complex interpretation and depiction! So very suitable to the image is the title... sometimes that is how I feel as well.... just all over the place, scrambled! Great artwork and thought put into this!

Aha .. but I see some very artistic lines underneath the grey dust. Fabulous swoops and swirls .. yup, you gotta sweep out the dust so the creative brain cells can function properly!
