Daisy Glow

For my latest addition to mydoodle and Fine Art America I have tried to work on a black and white image - maybe greyscale is more accurate.

I started with this photograph taken of an osteospernum flower that I grew from seed and planted in my garden.

I love the detail in the centre of the flower and also the shine on the petals, After a bit of playing I ended up with this black and white image.

This image is available to use from mydoodle click here 

I went on to crop the image and offset it a little to produce:

This image is also available to use with mydoodle click here and is also uploaded to Fine Art America click here

The actual images for use are of much higher quality than those used here.

Cornflowers

I've added a new design to my online portfolios. It was based on a photo of a couple of cornflowers .

I started with this photo:

I then had great fun adding effects and changing colours etc. I combined effects using about three different editing applications to end up with this. I chose to use blues and purples as this seemed to be n keeping with the subject.

If you would like to use this image to create wall art or greetings card designs using mydoodle click here and using Fine Art America click here

British Birds

Here's a collection of bird images that I have recently added to both mydoodle and Fine Art America portfolios.

The first two are photos that we managed to take of a robin that was sitting at the top of one of the trees in our garden announcing to all that he was claiming his territory.

The first was taken by me but I have to credit my husband with the second photo.

Then I have set up a collage showing four of our favourite British birds, the blue tit, the blackbird, the robin and the goldfinch.

To use any of these images as wall art of greetings cards designs click here for mydoodle and here for Fine Art America.

The actual images for use are of much higher quality than those used here.

Fine Art America Portfolio

I've just become a member of another online company that publishes photographs and art work as either wall art or greetings cards. The company is called Fine Art America.

One advantage of Fine Art America is that it does business at a more international level and takes payment in several currencies so it means I can offer my photographs to a wider community.

It also offer several types of wall that aren't available through my double such as on metal.

I have only uploaded a small number of images to FAA but if anyone sees an image they like in the mydoodle portfolio that they would like to obtain from FAA just email me and I'll try to upload it to FAA.

The actual images for use are of much higher quality than those used here.
