Most of you who follow my blog know I like art, all types of art.. a lot! You could say I'm a frustrated artist :) Every now and then I do get a canvas out and throw paint at it with gay abandon, sometimes it works, sometimes not. I'll show you one day..you can critique! Leanne Pearson one of Perth's most talented artists uses soft colour and exquisite light in her paintings, here I've had a little fun 'pastel-ling' up two nautical images taken recently. I didn't do too much to the top shot, the misty horizon was naturally blurred, below a few colour washes. Can you tell I didn't get out with my camera yesterday :) Surely it can't be Wednesday already! Take care and stay safe...
I like the results! Idyllic, particularly the first one.
ReplyDeleteI love pastel colors in photos. These are great!

Very artistic.
ReplyDeleteAhh, dreamy pictures.
ReplyDeleteYeah! Let us see your paintings sometime.
Very nice. I like them both but especially the second one. I like the word Dina used, "dreamy".
ReplyDeleteOh, I agree with Mersad!! Love the colors!! You do have a great eye, Grace!! Hope your week is going well!!
ReplyDeleteVery effective treatment of both photos. You don't have to use paint to qualify as an artist!
ReplyDeleteIt is sometimes interesting to see what tweaking a photo a little here and/or there will yield.
ReplyDeleteLovely Grace!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful scenes with perfect light!
ReplyDeleteBoth lovely, especially the top one, Grace!
ReplyDeleteTop pic is a winner.
ReplyDeleteI offer £500,000 for it.
Very arty Grace, I particularly like the first one. You'll have to show us some Grace originals on canvas one day...
ReplyDeleteWhen you take such stunning photos you CAN call yourself an artist.
ReplyDeleteI like the effect and sometimes use tricks like this myself. Nice summer ocean mist. We have ice in the Mississippi by now.
ReplyDeleteoh i really like the way these turned out...i would love to see your work sometime and i am laughing at you throwing paint with gay abandoned!
ReplyDeleteI like the soft colours and especially the first image.
ReplyDeletearen't we all frustrated artists
ReplyDeleteYou are an artist!
ReplyDeleteYou are a photo artist nonetheless! Leanne has some beautiful work!
ReplyDeleteNice work...i like the subtle color enhancements!!!

Love especially the first one, Grace. It looks like how I would see the scene in a dream. Makes me yearning for the ocean!
ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous set of images Grace.
ReplyDeleteLa première photo est magnifique, bravo Grace, tu es une artiste, comme on dit en France : tu as l’œil.. J'ai toujours eu beaucoup de plaisir a regarder tes photos. Bonne continuation :)
