This is the first time I have ever done a Throw Back Thursday, but hey, first time for everything. This features two images that were works in progress, but that I never really finished since I thought I couldn't add anything else, but thought I needed something else in them. Well, here are the images. Time Travel Light from the Bottom I don't really remember very much about them in their creation since these were made in 2014. Time Travel I do know I used a bit of renderings and Zoom Blur Deluxe. Based on how the image looks, Light from the Bottom uses Zoom Blur Deluxe a lot as well as Dents. Not sure what my inspiration was for these, but I think that I just played around with different effects for Time Travel. Hope you enjoyed this edition of Throw Back Thursday, and I hope that I do this more often. It's really fun to look back at my older works and see how much I have improved. See you in the next posting.

As school continues its toll, my brain (and quite possibly everyone else's) has taken a slight beating due to the amount of work and school work. Also not having internet and spending over 12 hours on the school campus is also tiring. Hence I wanted to make a flaming type of image that sort of depicted the state of my mind. I almost feel like my mind is melting in this furnace called my head, but we shall see how the rest of the semester goes. Anyway, the creation of this image was a bit different than what usually takes place. I didn't start with any shapes, lines, or scribbles, basically I didn't make this from scratch. Either that or you could say that it took 7 years to make this image. I used as a stock photo, an older image of mine called Glass Fire Explosion and distorted the crap out of it. Here is the original image. So after distorting with some of my favorite distortions, namely Radial Blur Deluxe, Frosted Glass, Dents, to name a few, and did a few layer b...

As the name suggests, a warm color pallet is in this one. Since school has started and cooler weather is coming upon us, just thought I would make a brighter image. I also noticed that most of my images don’t feature orange. So I thought that I would look online for good colors that go with orange, and blue was one of them. Not blue again!! Don’t worry, I hope that this image will be a bit of a change for the better. So I took a slightly different approach to this one than I usually do. I started with some random shapes that I drew with blue, and then with orange and distorted the crap out of them. I then tried different blending effects and when that wasn’t working to my liking, I flattened the image with the layers that I wanted and blended the layers using different effects. Here is the image. Upon further examination, and just thinking of how this could have an emotional connection to school having started, the blue could be something like the calmness of the first wee...
