Photo Art

What I mean by that title is any photo altered in some way ... I have more than a few that I've messed around with, maybe in preparation for a wallpaper/sig/av or maybe just trying out some new techniques and a few I've done on request by someone. If you all don't mind I'd like to share some with you, although I hope you will overlook the fact that they are all of Johnny Depp! :D (I'll post the 'befores' too in clickable thumbs)
First are a couple of 'drawings' from this picture. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...berlin01ba.jpg

WOW! Those are really awesome! Your really a great artist Chris:D

I would have taken the further liberty of removing the cigarette from each image, but otherwise, nice job!

Those are really great pictures! You are good!!!!

Those are great!! You are a great artist!

If only I were across the table from him in that last one. I wouldn't stay there long, though :D
ETA: I did this one of stacwase's Max. I often wonder about her and how she's doing. Anyone hear from her? I send an email a while back but it never got answered.

those are wonderful! I mess things up in PS all the time :rolleyes:

Aw, I really didn't expect anyone to be very interested, thanks so much everyone! http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...s/grouphug.gif

Thanks Karen! :)
The cigarette? Ah, but you see us Depp fans may not actually approve of the smoking but we like the cigarette pictures ... ok, so we're a weird bunch, guess you'd have to have JDOCD to understand. :D

You are a Photoshop Wizard Chris- and no- I don't mind that it is all Johnny Depp ;)

Wow! :D They are really good!

Thanks Barbara & Anita! :D

Sorry Val, I missed it first time round, I like that Max pic, very colourful!

Anyone else got some to share!?

I love your work Chris...and I love Depp as well!! I can't wait until July when the next Pirates of the Carribean movie comes out. :D I haven't even figured out how to colour the pics in photoshop yet. That will be a future lesson when I find the time. ;)

My sister's birthday is this month and my mother's birthday is coming up in July. I decided to create something from all the photos we have and this year I'll be focussing on the cottage pictures. Our cottage is like our home and we have had the property in our family for close to 70 years.

This was my first attempt at doing a significant alteration in photoshop. It's the cabin by the lake at our cottage and I'll be doing similar black and white pictures of each building on the property to eventually have a set (we have 5 buildings).

My sister said she wanted a cottage picture for her office at work. I'll be framing the altered picture below this weekend for her.

Here's the orginal pic & the alteration:

Nor me! Have you seen the trailers yet?

Glad you like my work, thank you. :D I have one of the earlier photoshops, version 6, but I think the colouring is a faily easy thing to do, especially if you have other pictures to colour pick from for the skin tone etc. Then all you need is to do lots of layers and have patience! :D

Two more :D (I do do other things it's just that right now I'm getting requests for Johnny D pics!)
