Very good.
Makes a lovely fractal!
Interesting postwork and "abstract"
Great abstract work!
A mesmerising abstract! Rotated 90 left there is a crazy head and face obvious in the balloon, try it!
did a good job on postwork
I do love the postwork you've done here
This works so well, great post work presenting a whole new perspective on the original piece you captured.
I see nothing goes to waste with you. It seems you've created a silk purse out of a sow's ear. This would make a wonderful wall hanging or print.
Your timely digifiddling converted this sow's ear into a cool productive image. Excellent fodder for a horror movie, Andrea.
It makes a great abstract, nicely rescued!
I agree with the abstract comments but I have to confess that I thought I was looking at a rising full moon! Love the postwork!
Ha ha, nice bunch of colour!
A failed success.
Outstanding work. God bless.
It came out like a masterpiece here girl fantastic job.
Makes an interesting pic though!!
OH, that is one of the happy accidents. It looks quite beautiful.
exactly. Exactly. It doesn't matter what you originally started to do, because somewhere along the line the image spoke a whole other language, and kazam: You got this beauty. It's an abstract that almost 'droops' onto the page. And it has beautiful rust tones, like the rust hues on a copper plate, something almost metallic. And your postwork gives us your usual layers and colonies, all in concentric formation like those canyons and rock formations in Tara's gallery---only these are of the mind, not of real stone. LOVE that purple and blue splotch in the lower left; love your rust reds; and that balloon is a wonderfully droopy affair, with layer upon layer adding to it (and those 'energy-fields' on the striated edges). Man, do I like your abstractions. I always love it when you do near-abstraction, and to see how your mind plays with all the nooks and crannies; how you vitalize it with wonderful hues; and how you find all those colonies and energy-lines messing around. Lucky freakin' balloon. It never had a better representation, believe me...
This looks amazing, Andrea. A most fantastic and creative Image. I'm really impressed by your work (here, and in your gallery!)
