Description
My first attempt at trying Shari's (tizjezzme's) tutorial, Grunge It
Certainly takes ordinary away from the description:-)
Am interested in any and all opinions. Once you begin the process of grunging you can go on forever. Hopefully I stopped at a right place.
Thanks for stopping by,
Bill:)

The effect looks really good.Fine work.
great to see you do this! It looks like art on fabric, or some form of print. A nice choice of texture & image to superimpose on the bird—you did it very sensitively; and the grasses make fine counterpoint to the mass of the bird. Plus you captured grasses just beneath his belly, as if they converged in line with his belly. Very nice choice. I'd love to see more from you & the other photographers who did this! I saw Shari's tutorial: really nice work, especially for people who've done little blending. For those of us who layer often, it really becomes a wonderfully slow & delicate art, where the slightest variations in fill/opacity create whole new possibilities; and then you manipulate and adjust in repeated tiny increments until a sculpted image emerges. My Photoshop images use about 2 or 3 blends per (well, my whacked out ones used 10 or more, but I'm going for fun in those!); and the average RR image takes about 4-5 hours, though I've gone longer for some...Here, you've made a complex image, and it has a real print feel to it, almost like an old linen postcard. I'd love to see more, and I understand what you mean by "you can go on forever": Choices are hard, lol, just like with the camera! Lovely piece, Bill.
Well! Gotta admit, it's different! But you knew I'd not quite click with this sort of thing!!! I'm a straight down the middle kind of guy! Only JUST started using collages.... That said, what you've done has been done very well. I did think it was a rock band though..... Rob.
