FRIDAY PHOTOS

PHOTO ART FRIDAY

    STILL LIFE STUDY





MIRROR, MIRROR
I used two photos for this piece.  The eyes are the base.  Another photo of a display of mirrors and vase of silver branches was copied and flipped to make a mirror image of the mirrors.  I adjusted the colors to be all red and then used it as an overlay over the eyes and then inverted the colors. This was all done in Ipiccy. Cut out elements were added to the mirror image with Picture It.



    MIDSUMMER NIGHT

Midsummer's Night donkey mask and chalk dog.  I used two Ipiccy textures and a color inversion for this piece.  The original was taken at an antique show.




Eyes
The Three Muses challenge "Eyes" prompted this creation.  The same base photo of mirrors and color change all the way to red.
I added eyes to all of the mirrors.  The eyes are actually my glamorous daughter's eyes. I uploaded the photo to Ippicy and gave it a color boost with hue and saturation to get the variations.  

Thanks for viewing.
