This is a geometric design that I created using oil pastels for an ATC swap. The original was the center rectangle image. I took that image and enlarged it for the background - then lowered the opacity. I went back to the original image and moved that one to the top of the background. Then I simply duplicated the center image four times to create a layered effect. Using contrast and brightness, I tweaked the image to make it "pop" and then added lighting effects. This one was fun! I can think of many ways to use this technique. If you haven't tried this yet, I recommend you do. This is a great excercise in thinking outside the box with shapes as well as color.
Nice - has the look of a stained glass abstract, no doubt enhanced by lowering opacity.

ReplyDeleteYour talent is endless! This piece is just beautiful. You are so lucky to know other ATC artists. I know of no ATC artists here because no one has heard of ATCs. And, since I ran out of sleeves anyway, I haven't ATC'd since I moved here. (sigh)
I cannot wait to see your next artwork! Love your work again and again,
