Another original photo ACCEPTED for publication!

I'm happy to announce that another of my original photos will be published in the SPRING 2010 issue of the BAC Street Journal (No. 3)!

This is the second time my work has been published in the BAC Street Journal. Last year, the premier issue of the BAC Street Journal - published in Spring 2009 - included two of my works - an original poem and an original photo!

The Beverly Art Center, publisher of the BAC Street Journal, is throwing a reception on Sunday May 23, 2010 for all of us artists who are being published in this Spring issue!

Woo-hoo!

Editing a book!

For the next few weeks, I'm editing another book,

in addition to working on art for my Sep 25 show this fall in Blue Island, IL!

Woo-hoo!

So Artful Challenge - Bouquet

'Les Fleurs - Bouquet'

Digital image

7" x 7"

approx. 20 mins

Here's my entry for a So Artful Challenge for Bouquet. My original photo that I'd played with in Photoshop (PSE) a few months back. Then I added some filters, gradients edges and transparent layers in MS Digital Image Editor (DIE).

This image was quick to make using the default edges in DIE on my flower photo.

What do you think of this one? Email me here

Thanks for stopping by. Would love for you to come back for a visit - often!

Peace,

The Three Muses Challenge #49 - STARS!

'Lucy in the sky with ...Stars'

Original digital montage

5" x 7.5"

approx. 2 hours

This is my entry into The Three Muses challenge for Stars!

It's a digital montage that I started as an experiment to create a foreshortened checkerboard floor. Created with scanned found objects and an old earring - using layers, transparent objects and gradients in Photoshop Elements (PSE) and Microsoft Digital Image Editor (DIE).

Love these software products - so much fun! What do you think of Lucy?

Do you use image editing software? Which software?

Thanks for stopping by - and please come back to visit often.

Peace,

LuLu
