For this week's texture art photo we were asked to create and submit an art photo using
what we have learned about layering and use the theme of one of our favorite books..any book. Well, I
chose a series of law and order type books which were made into movies. Aaron Sorkin wrote A Few Good Men and John Grisham was the author of both The Firm and The Pelican Brief. I went with the latter, using a photo of my late father's Appellate Court law books, a photo of the scales he had in his chambers
as a judge. Using texture of antique lettering and a stock photo of a pelican, I put them all
together. I'm not used to the Pixlr site yet, but this is what I came up with today; it is
a bit 'off' because I was used to picnik and don't have photoshop;
the editing and blending could be much better and I thought the tutorial was poor,
but...it was fun to put together;)

I love the creative layering in this photo! I am also trying to make the transition from picnik (I loved it!) to pixlr (hmmmm) ... you have clearly been more obvious than I have in making that transition! bravo!
ReplyDeleteP.S. I love your "about me"!!
Thank you, Janet; we will keep at it, won't we?!
DeleteYou have edited the many layers into a lovely whole, Kathy. I just love it when I find ways to incorporate meaningful family momentos into my photo art. You have done so beautifully here. Thank you for sharing with PAF!
ReplyDeleteBonnie, thank you so much...I think that is why I am doing this...to have a unique record of "things".;)
DeleteLove this and loved the movie. Thanks for dropping by my blog and for leaving a comment.
ReplyDeleteCapture Life!
A very original treatment for the book title--the image caught my attention in Bonnie's gallery so I had to come over and investigate. Nicely done!
ReplyDeleteI love this composite! The colors are lovely.
ReplyDeleteI love colors of harmony and composition :)
