CC is my painter, she absolutely loves it…
“Can I paint?”
“I wanna paint!”
“Come on Daddy, come paint with us!”
She often attracts a crowd, and before long, she has a painting class in full swing
I haven’t gotten to paint much this week, just a few quick watercolor sketches
But I have been playing with the Waterlogue app on my iPhone
It’s fast and fun
HHjr whipped up these onion rings the other night, yummmmmm
It’s fun to experiment with the different effects the filters produce
I usually use vibrant
But I do love the lines with streamlined and the cool effects with illustration
I often use Waterlogue for photos I am going to paint, it emphasizes the shapes and contrasts
Above is the reference page I used to paint Peach Pie, the top photo on the sheet is the original photo and the lower larger photo is the Waterlogue version
PicMonkey has great effects for photos too, below is the paint effect
Edge sketch
And posterize
Playing with different filters and effects for photos is great fun, non artists can paint away and artists can use the filters to help them simplify complex subjects, break down colors and tones, and experiment with different techniques
Have fun and Be Fearless!
