Dance Machine 3

Small Groups


I put together a few sets which aren't quite large enough for their own albums yet. Enjoy!

Dress-Up 3

I never find time to make Halloween costumes, so this will have to do. Shown smaller than the original completed size of 2525 X 4482 pixels.

Dress-Up 4

16 Dec 2023 4 5 50
When the stores are all out of Halloween candy, so you have to give out hunks of raw meat instead. You also must accept the fact that the neighbors will give you weird looks every day for the next year when you pass on the street. Shown smaller than the original completed size of 4050 X 4950 pixels.

Friday 1 - Friday, My Dear

03 May 2018 2 281
At a weekend barbecue last Fall, a small kitten wandered out of the woods at our friends' place, looking for a home. We took care of him, briefly, but it was too late to save his life. It's been in my mind since then to do a small piece in his honor. Original size: 1000 X 1000 pixels. One source is here .

Friday 2 - Friends Of Friday

30 Oct 2017 7 6 317
That last piece was pretty complex, so I went with something more simple this time. Shown smaller than the original completed size of 2543 X 1843 pixels. If the title confuses you, see my Friday story here . Also, I built it mostly from a snippet of a paper collage: from 2017 .

Friday 3 - Friday The Third

30 Jan 2020 7 2 232
No fireworks, no grilling, no parades. Just another tribute to an old friend . Shown smaller than the original completed size of 4000 X 4561 pixels.

Friday 4 - Friday In The Park

28 Jun 2022 8 6 201
Shown at original size: 943 X 1300 pixels. Some clarity is probably lacking. But working at this smaller size helped me control the corner brushwork a bit better. See one original source here .

Friday 5 - Friday At Five

26 Jun 2023 6 207
I used the "Craquelure" filter to create the rough texture. At least, it's rough from a distance. If you zoom in, it looks a bit like tiger stripes though. A funny coincidence. (And also, if you see distortions when you zoom in close on my images, I'm sorry. It might be an ipernity bug but I've been too busy to investigate that.) Shown smaller than the original completed size of 2850 X 4500. See one original source here .

Friday 6 - Friday Is Blue

03 Jan 2023 18 12 202
Title courtesy of... Paul Meowriat !! ;) (Sorry.) A good weekend to all. :) A little fun with Gradient Overlay here. I should practice it more. Shown smaller than the original completed size of 3420 X 3420 pixels. See one original source here .

Magic Cap

07 Nov 2020 11 4 220
Well, if you don't need a little magic "vegetation" at 10 AM on a Monday, when will you need it? ;) Shown smaller than the original completed size of 2850 X 3300 pixels. See one original source here .

Magic Cap 2

10 May 2021 11 8 270
Aaand, just as I wrap up work on this, I hear that forest fire season is already beginning here in the U.S. West. Sadly, it's not legal to punch billionaires and politicians in the face, nor are we allowed to send them out to fight the fires. Anyway, that statue is a Greek Peplos Kore from around 530 B.C. From a 1973 tour guide to the Acropolis. Shown smaller than the original completed size of 5000 X 5000 pixels.

Magic Cap 3

The area at the bottom was once a string of pearls in an old photo of a Hollywood starlet. Then I saw the mushrooms "grow" from the many filters I layered on (along with the bouquet) and used a dry brush and pencil to "carve them out." :D Shown smaller than the original completed size of 3540 X 2625 pixels. See one original source here .

Magic Cap 4

05 Feb 2024 15 28 230
This piece began as a Pattern Overlay called "Satin" turned up almost to maximum size. Then the other elements were pasted over or under it. Shown smaller than the original completed size of 3620 X 4905 pixels. See one original source here .

Peaches

11 Aug 2018 2 4 321
Some of the tones did end up peach-like, or maybe I just wanted an excuse to play this sweet thing again. :) Shown smaller than the original finished size of 1417 X 2185 pixels. You can see one of the sources here .

Peaches 2

15 May 2019 6 7 399
