Pin It

My favorite color! So many possibilities…but when I saw this quote I decided to do something a little different.

I used a couple of Kim’s textures to texturize my red blur photo:

That was a desperate attempt at getting in a shot of the day that day — late at night, as I was loading up the washing machine, I noticed the bright red light and thought — eh, why not? I always thought it would be a good base for some kind of texture.

And I was also greatly inspired by the incredible Nancy Donaldson (you have to look at her encaustic work — it is so cool!) and her texture challenge.

Type was set to color burn — one of my favorite of the darkening blend modes. I think color burn and linear burn make the blended item appear to be part of the image underneath rather than a layer sitting on top. I use those two a lot — especially when I add text.

Happy Texture Tuesday — looking forward to this evening when I will be able to sit down with a cup of tea and what you all have done. : )
