Happy Holidays everyone! Hopefully everyone is having a great day and that everyone is staying warm. In the last post I did say that I liked to stay warm. I'm sure everyone likes to be warm to some extent, otherwise there wouldn't have been hot chocolate or Apple Cider made. With the holiday season here, I wanted to share some of the warmth in the form of an image, and I call it Spirit of the Season. This image has a nice warm feel to it to give that warm feeling of friends and family around. More or less the same effects as the last one and used the same technique for the middle rings. I did fade them out so that they aren't very noticeable or overpowering. I also had the goal of having red, green, and yellow, and that happened here. Fun fact, no yellow was used in the making of this image, it came out of blend modes. I hope you enjoy your holidays and stay warm!

In some parts of the world, winter has already taken it's grasp. I will say this much, I really don't like winter at all. I hope it doesn't last that long and that summer comes soon. I just love the warmth and can't get enough of it. When I think of winter, I think of a very cold, yet beautiful scenery. That is why I took the best of both worlds in this new image titled Winter's Approach. Dents, Crystalize, and Radial Extruder are a few of the effects I used in this one. I actually had to take the design on the lower right and make it in a larger canvas since it was too big to fit in the center. I then offset it to the lower right so that it looked a bit nicer. Plus, I'm not wanting to place things in the center very often. I then did a few blurs in the background for that smooth feel. Enjoy the winter everyone and I'll see you here soon.
