lovely rich jewel colours for this weeks summer of colour plus a splash of pure white
I altered a photo again and used this one from March as my starting point
and this is what I created
this one I will be printing off and I think it would make a great postcard too
I found some wool in approximate colours too so was able to make another square for a charity blanket to be sent for blankets for AIDS orphans in South Africa
I enjoyed looking at all the lovely summer of colour creations last week and know they will be fantastic this week too across a wide range of styles and mediums
It would make a great postcard. It just goes to show what a little creative imagination can do: the two pictures are totally different.
ReplyDeleteA great colour combo for a square too
Love your altered photo and the addition of the white bird makes the piece work really well.
ReplyDeleteYour digital interpretation of your photo is fantastic. I love this one, and I can see how it would be very popular. Your bird really popped and was just the right amount of white for the piece.
ReplyDeleteNicely done on the crocheted piece, too. You are very thoughtful to do these charity pieces.
What a beautiful transformation of an already beautiful photo!
ReplyDeleteThe square is nice in both pattern and color! I'm going to check out that website.
Truly wonderful art. Your card is so bold but inviting.
ReplyDeleteHave a very nice weekend
