From Bad, to Amazing

Image
The title is something that I haven't really done here, which is a title that isn't the title of the image at all. Don't worry, I'll go on to my old ways here in the next post, unless you guys like the interesting titles. We shall see what happens. So I was thinking of what to do for a new image, and I thought, why not resurrect my very first image that I made on Paint.NET, which I called Divided. Now, this image is the worst image I have on here, at least one of my worst, since it was when I first started and didn't know what I was doing. I have since gotten better as you can see, and am wanting to show what I can do. Anyhow, I wanted to do something with this image so that I can compare them side by side, and show myself how far I've come in 9 years or so. To give you perspective, here is my first image called Divided. Not the best, lots of dark areas, and not many effects. I was a senior in High School since it was created back in September of 2009. So

Spring Flowers

Spring is nearly here, which means warmer weather is on its way. I'm excited about that since I would really like to start riding my bike again and doing other outdoor activities. I looked on Google for spring color palettes to get some ideas on what colors to use, and I found this one that I'll be using (thanks Google). So without much else to say, here is Spring Flowers. I took some green and made a bit of the background using Radial Blur, and then I tried making a green flower-like design, but in the end I didn't keep it. I then used the pink from the color palette and made the outlines of it. I then made the flower design with pink. I then added a lighter green to brighten the image up. I hope everyone is excited about the warm weather coming, and especially spring. It is one of the most beautiful times of year with all sorts of flowers and colors. As always, take care and I'll see you here soon.

Sandstone Roses

Here is yet another image for your enjoyment. February has come and gone, and with March rolling in, we have warmer weather to look forward to. I started with the desktop background of my computer, which is of Lake Powell pictured below. I then started manipulating the photo with the new style that I picked up a few months ago and came out with a nice rose looking image. I thought it would be fitting with spring coming around the corner, to have an image depicting a type of flower. So, although this wasn't the outcome I was thinking of getting with this image, I left it how it was. It took some effects like Radial Blur Deluxe, Splinter, and some of my classic favorites like Dents and Glass Blocks to come out with the image you see below. I hope everyone is as excited about spring as I am. I'm done with the cold weather and hope that it doesn't last too much longer. Summer will be even better for me since I love the heat. Anyway, have a wonderful day everyone and
