"Hitching a Ride on a Tumbling Tumbleweed"

Uploaded: May 15, 2008

Description

DD. This started off with a leaf from a flower. I used the Polar co-ordinated filter then Twirl and ran it through Fractalus and made it hairy. That gave me the idea for a Tumbleweed. I had already made the Picture Tube of Teena years ago as the image is around 6 years old. It served it's purpose as she is laying on a log so I popped her in - hence the title. Hope you enjoy it. I finished it off in Coral Painter until I got all confused lol.~Pat

Hope you enjoy this one, took ages lol as I used Corel Painter to touch the image up and so many brushes, it's not those really, it is the layers. ~Pat #921877

Oh I forgot, Teena is a puppy so the photo must have been taken six years ago. I made it into a PSP Picture Tube so was able to use it. ~Pat #5926521
