Play is black and white


Play in photoshop with some of my art and photography. Lots of black and white layering infused with a touch of red. Needed more soothing....

For the Three Muses Black & White challenge. OK, so there's not actually that much black and white left, but believe me the layers were there - I hit 'convert to black and white' more times than Charlie Chaplin made a film, I promise!!

Abstract is what's calling me next I think, although the Muse is a little scared by the whole idea of blobs and stuff. We'll see...Maybe I'll feel more comfortable combining with Photoshop - opens up a whole host of new possibilities :)

  1. The 'blobs' one - cat playing with mouse with a very long tail? Love your style here & perseverance to achieve desired effects!

  2. There's enough b/w there to qualify but I love the depth of the red and the mysterious hints of everything else!

    See, you do the same as me - create such very different stuff... Does it mean we have yet to discover our "true" identity or are we just marvellously versatile?
