Borderblog: Progression

Wednesday, January 6, 2010

It started out looking like this...

Then I removed Moses, the fence and the barn and faded away the edges. I really wanted to blur the background but couldn't figure out how.

So in the meantime I experimented with black and white.

Finally I figured out how to do what I wanted and this is what I got! I'm pretty happy with how it turned out!

THEN Photoshop actions and brushes.

I LOVE Photoshop.; January 6, 2010 at 8:52 PM

I wish I could wipe out my neighbors treehouse, playhouse, jungle gym, toys, etc.

Keep posting, and I'm heading to amazon to buy myself some software!; January 7, 2010 at 5:13 AM
