sokagirl Posted December 23, 2009 Author Share Posted December 23, 2009 @ Oma , may thanks for stopping by . I know you're very busy and it means a lot for you to do so @ Helen they are mostly done with a variety of things like color flip rotate , duplicating layers and playing with the blend modes , using a lot of gradient . It's amazing what you can create with gradients .. Last but never the least Polar Inversion and sometimes the droste @barbieq , thanks sweetie :wink: Here's something I wanted to make the tunnel of love but had no idea as to how to create the rocks around the tunnel and I took Oma's advice about the glowing light and making it into something else , using layers and such I came up with a butterfly in a garden Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HELEN Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 The first image is spectacular and it does look like a garden and the second one is amazing! It looks as if I'm in a field of tall flowers. Nice!

A Fleeting Glimpse Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 Sokagirl the Fairy, Love is and The Butterfly are :shock: :shock: :shock: brilliant, love them great work EDIT: duplicate the whole Butterfly picture, then change the blend mode of the top layer to Color Burn and try Glow also you will get a totally different picture with Color Burn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sokagirl Posted December 24, 2009 Author Share Posted December 24, 2009 @barbieq , thanks for the comment , glad you like it . @Helen , happy to see you here . Thank you for commenting @A Fleeting Glimpse , yes I see .. I tried it out and it looks far out @Yellowman , so happy that you like them . You're right I do have my own style and I have you all to thank for inspiring me and telling me to keep going when I tried to quit .. Here's something very different , I was going to call it playdoh but I'm not sure if some you people ever heard of it , it was a kids play thing that looked like clay anyways i'm calling this piece " Clay Bird " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oma Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 I can see you are really experimenting and stretching your wings on these last few images. Just those extra few things you've been throwing into the mix have stepped up your images quite a bit. Lovely as always, you've an eye for beauty that shows in your art. It is always such a pleasure coming by your gallery. I don't always leave a message but my morning wander thru the galleries always brings me by here for an uplift. ciao OMA Quote My Deviant Art Gallery Oma's Paint.Net gallery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also posted this one in the Abstract thread .. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Fleeting Glimpse Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 :shock: the work you are producing is just getting better and better, the colours in the first one are beautiful, the next one makes me think of crystal, the next where you have used layers etc. is wonderful it has structure and depth as do the others.... im getting a lot of pleasure from watching your work develop and expand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theonlychad Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 very good soka you are getting better and better at abstracts everyday i really enjoy your latest two images and they are your best yet in the abstract spectrum. I would also love to see more 3d art from you like your Chinese lamp because that was absolutely brilliant. Quote "Clearly it's a very serious and literal meaning.

sokagirl Posted December 30, 2009 Author Share Posted December 30, 2009 @ A Fleeting Glimpse , Ha ha .. I do use a lot of layering @ Aislin , aww don't worry about it .. I understand :wink: @ barbieq , thanks sweetie @ theonlychad , you haven't seen the silly 3d thing I made on page 25 ?? I really would love to create more neater things .. Something weird I think ..

Kemaru Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 It's really neat. O: I would like to see some more contrast, though.

sokagirl Posted January 1, 2010 Author Share Posted January 1, 2010 Right O Kemaru ha ha .. I understand what you mean that's what I seem to have a problem with , same goes for my signatures .. Thanks for looking though , I appreciate it :wink: Hopefully people would find this one more tasteful ?? I don't know This time I chose to go with different colors that I've never used ..

Bjarni Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 Very nice, but I dont like the colors :? Is it done with Polar Inversion? Quote Bye Bye PDN! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sokagirl Posted January 3, 2010 Author Share Posted January 3, 2010 Very nice, but I dont like the colors :? Is it done with Polar Inversion? Too bad if you don't like colors .. Ha ha , j/k I had it in blue and white but changed it to something different seems like I always use blue or purple so I wanted to go with something I had never used before . Your second question , was it done with polar in version ? yes it was @ barbieq , thanks for dropping by :wink: your comments always appreciated . Not going to be posting here much but I just wanted to leave you with something .. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
