This is #8 in the 29 Faces Challenge. It started as
a watercolor. I then applied one of the filters from
the Photoshop Elements to give her this speckled
look. For other entries see this site HERE.
I am also entering this in Paint Party Friday.

I like the speckled effect!

ReplyDeletePhotoshop has given this piece a great aged feel. I like the way you are approaching each day so differently Faye
ReplyDeleteIt's easy to say 'I love this' but I really do think this is lovely and one to admire. She is serene and beautiful, and it is good to see the hope in her eyes. She looks the kind of elegant person one would love to have as a neighbour and friend.
