01/26/2016 - Lavender Mish Mash

The Daily Texture for 01/26/2016
​Lavender Mish Mash

Lavender Mish Mash Texture
Ok, so Today's Daily Texture is pretty abstract.  It's also filled with the beautiful colors of Spring!  You may find it more challenging to work with, but, what fun is life without challenges? :)  I paired it with a brilliant yellow goldfinch.  The yellow on his head matched the yellow in some of the wild strokes, so I thought it might be fun.  I have thousands of photos of these birds -- all taken in similar areas with similar lighting.  This is where the fun of using textures come in...because that makes where the original photo was taken totally irrelevant.  By using textures, each similar photo can now become a totally unique work of art, each different from the next!
Abstract Goldfinch Art
I used the texture as a background and also as a soft light layer on top set to about 40%.  After merging the layers, I duplicated the final image and took this duplicate into Topaz Impression. Once in there, I ran one of my custom presets I made which boost the color a bit and soften things overall.  It made the image a little too soft for my liking, so I set this impression layer on only 50%, allowing some of the original photo+texture to come through from underneath, yet still keeping some of that painted layer in place.
Like this texture?  Buy it here.  Commercial Use OK.
