First, I scanned flowers, then played with the image a bit:

tecoyah · 04-09-2005, 12:37 PM

Absofreakinlutely beautificationized.........You are incredible Dawg

d3cemberist · 04-09-2005, 12:38 PM

VERY nice. I love it! Keep up the amazing work! You have a lot of talent.

ngdawg · 04-09-2005, 01:25 PM

Thanks! I'll add more as I do them-this is really fun!

SiN · 04-09-2005, 01:26 PM

in-fucking-credible!

seriously. I've long been a big fan of flowers in art, and i'm a big ng fan.

put the 2 together, and it's like magic

Willravel · 04-09-2005, 02:08 PM

The first one overwhelmed me. I'll have to compose myself and come back to it later. Ther one in post 4 is mezmorizing. I can't stop looking at it. You have true talent. Would you mind if I made the art in post 4 the desktop of my computer?

maleficent · 04-09-2005, 02:14 PM

Cool stuff... is the second image what the daffodils looked like originally?

Heh....I already did

yes, that's the original scan (I posted that one first, but it came up second)
Use them as you please for personal use-I have no problem with that-art is to be enjoyed and I am more than happy you all are enjoying mine so much.
Thank you!

I just had a thought-these were saved for web, so they are very lightweight and may be pixellated. If you would like a TIFF version that's better quality, PM me with an email address that can handle heavy attachments and I will send it. This is for TFP'ers only. All else, $10.

Willravel · 04-09-2005, 06:13 PM

Much thanks!! Your talent is matched by your grace. I'll enjoy this whenever I am at my computer, which is quite often I must admit.

amonkie · 04-10-2005, 08:25 AM

Absolutely gorgeous, ngdawg! I love that the originals are last, it helps to get the full effect of your artistic manipulations.

RickB · 04-13-2005, 10:54 AM

Wow! These are wonderful! Did you do this with Photoshop or something else?

ngdawg · 04-13-2005, 11:59 AM

I used Photshop and a plug-in called Xero. Xero has a filter called 'titanium', which was the first thing I did to these before going further.

NoSoupForYou · 04-13-2005, 01:56 PM

i really like that last one...nice work man

ShaniFaye · 04-13-2005, 02:08 PM

I'd love to see what you could do with tulips

Those pics are beautiful girl

greeneyes · 04-13-2005, 06:38 PM

The last one is my favorite. Beautiful work, ng.

ngdawg · 04-18-2005, 05:22 PM

stonegrody · 04-18-2005, 05:36 PM

Great work, ngdawg! Absolutely beautiful.

K-Wise · 04-18-2005, 07:12 PM

Wow. These are really awesome. Fantastic work Ngdawg!

Asta!!

ngdawg · 04-18-2005, 08:18 PM

It never ceases to amaze me that I simply cannot use the same series of steps from one item to another and expect to achieve similar results. The mums are very hard to pinpoint-I couldn't do anything to them that I did to the daffodils. More to come....

ngdawg · 04-18-2005, 08:21 PM

Oh! Maybe I should clear up the thread title! I was in chat, remarking that I was getting daffodil juice all over the scanner to which Tecoyah replied, 'There is such a thing as being TOO creative'.

SiN · 04-19-2005, 10:03 AM

ng - i can't stop staring at those last pink mums ... they're haunting.

love it!

ngdawg · 04-21-2005, 11:54 AM

Here they are:

ngdawg · 04-21-2005, 11:59 AM

the dogwood

kramus · 04-24-2005, 10:57 AM

Great stuff ng, really like the very first one, the paper mums and the dogwood. And the portraits too.

ngdawg · 04-27-2005, 11:42 AM

ngdawg · 04-29-2005, 09:13 PM

more dogwood

ngdawg · 04-29-2005, 09:40 PM

And I scan other stuff as well

maleficent · 04-29-2005, 09:49 PM

Those are so very cool--they'd make great notecards or such... Very creative...

Now that is a piece that really tickles my creative spot (oohhh oohh, more ng - that's right honey

). I like works that could be inspiring in ways unexpected and now I am really pumped to see what else you've got

Seriously ng, stuff like that last one is like a spark plug to me. What else have you got?

All can say is, check back once a week or so...as my thoughts circle and settle, I come up with more weird things

cellophanedeity · 04-30-2005, 12:52 PM

these are so wonderful! I especially like the last dogwood picture.

Looks like it could be an invitation to something fancy.

questone · 04-30-2005, 04:24 PM

oh, I love this last one ngdawg! fantastic stuff! (#38)

(#36), I found myself looking at this for a long time... she looks like she is scolding me.. amazing!

kramus · 05-08-2005, 06:39 AM

I do know that #32 has depths and levels to it that could be gone into for a long time.
