It provides a way to create layers like the cells in a cartoon (ie background, middle, foreground, characters etc. as deep as you like). <BR/><BR/>Because you are photographing the evolving artwork, it gives possibilities to use layers and masks to mix and match the pix. <BR/><BR/>Just for fun I've snapped 'close to the edge', 'fragile' and 'circus of heaven' and cutout and layered three of their components to illustrate the way it works. <A HREF="http://flickr.com/photos/rashbre/2824810995/sizes/o/" REL="nofollow">here</A> <BR/><BR/>I used PS Elements (on a mac).rashbrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01138427049001650099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34239588.post-3485785047759802022008-09-01T18:34:00.000+01:002008-09-01T18:34:00.000+01:00Hi Niall, just wandered in from Bobkats place.I re...Hi Niall, just wandered in from Bobkats place.<BR/><BR/>I remember the first year my Mum lived in Wirksworth she had a strange experience during the festival. It was a hot day, so she had left her cottage door open. She went to the kitchen to fetch a drink, came back and found a load of people in her living room looking at the pictures on her walls.<BR/><BR/>I'll look out for your exhibition this year.Lois (three-legged-cat)https://www.blogger.com/profile/12678081529440242681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34239588.post-24244002222164575572008-09-01T17:08:00.000+01:002008-09-01T17:08:00.000+01:00DM...Flattery will get you everywhere!..however Ja...DM...Flattery will get you everywhere!..however Jan is happy telling everyone she is only 28...which means I married her when she was 3!<BR/><BR/>Bobkat...I must admit my image of the venue might sound a little 'Grottoesque'..maybe i should hire a Santa suit and charge to let people sit on my knee?<BR/><BR/>Rashbre...Welcome fellow prize winner!..please feel free to make any comments/suggestions..I'm wondering if you are refering to 'Photo shop' whehn you say 'PS'..I don't have it on my PC and have never used it. <BR/><BR/>Yessongs...now you're talking!Niall younghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11292269528065570161noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34239588.post-29984730709865388362008-09-01T11:23:00.000+01:002008-09-01T11:23:00.000+01:00Fascinating to watch the evolution of the picture;...Fascinating to watch the evolution of the picture; I'm here via Bob-kat so I may just take a look around. <BR/><BR/>I like the picture up to '18' by the way!<BR/><BR/>Being a digital sort of person, it occurs to me (excuse any unintended sacrilege), that the style of your painting (based upon Orbit) seems to lend itself well to layers.<BR/><BR/>I suppose I'm idly thinking that creating it in PS layers gives interesting opportunities to reconfigure. I realize thats not exactly conventional, but shouldn't be a shock to someone versed in Yessongs.<BR/><BR/>Best <A HREF="http://rashbre2.blogspot.com" REL="nofollow">rashbre</A>rashbrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01138427049001650099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34239588.post-71896084412007906772008-09-01T02:38:00.000+01:002008-09-01T02:38:00.000+01:00Right now, the barn looks...er..um..well, dilapida...Right now, the barn looks...er..um..well, dilapidated.<BR/>Hope it gets ready in time for the exhibition.<BR/>All the very best,Niall. i am sure it will go off really well.<BR/>Cheers<BR/>preetiPreeti Shenoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01626823872300694608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34239588.post-5826726691625924792008-08-31T19:20:00.000+01:002008-08-31T19:20:00.000+01:00Good luck with the exhibition.
