Art

Mike and I have been re-watching Buffy the last couple of weeks, watching every episode, well almost every episode.. more than I normally watch on a re-watch and it really makes you appreciate the good and great episodes more when you see the bad ones!

Anyway I've been playing in PS on my new laptop and managed to make 3 pieces from Buffy.. nothing amazing but fun to play and re-discover what everything does in Photoshop!

Second Best


No Air - this was me just playing with some lyrics I like but not sure worked so well for this.. oh well fun anyway!


I just love how the colours look on my screen they are so vibrant, makes me realise what I've been missing!

Oooh YAY! I am so happy your inspiration returned with your new laptop! ♥ I love all 3 of them, but my favourite is 'No Air'! I love the vibrant green and the composition has some nice depth.

Hi honey! ♥

Yeah I had a touch of my old muse, the one that just kept flowing with ideas!

Glad you like where I was trying to go with No Air :)

Have you had any inspiration this weekend?

Heh, it's funny how Buffy seems to do the trick every time, when it comes to your muse! :)

Yeah, I made a wall for a BF challenge on Saturday and have another wall in mind, but didn't get around to try and create it, since I spent all day yesterday with my best friend. But I am really keen on trying it and as soon as I come home today, I'll open PS. LOL

Oh yeah I saw your challenge piece, really cool, looks like you had fun with that :)

I can't wait to see your new idea, so weird both of us with inspiration at the same time!!

I should just always keep Buffy on in the background if it keeps my muse alive! I'm going to try my SN idea tonight!

LOL I did, I love manipping and making stuff look old and yellowed is always fun as well! :D I am quite excited about my other idea as well, I really really hope it works out. /sigh. LOL

Ha, I'd love to see you get into making SN art again, I hope your idea comes to life on canvas. *hugs*

*seconds the YAY* So great to see you posting art again, honey!

And it's Buffy related, so YAY again :) I like how dark these walls are, and the text you chose makes them really strike with emotion. My favorite is the No Air one, too, especially the addition of sunlit clouds in the bottom. Visualization of the metaphor adds so much sadness to the piece... Really, beautiful.

I should have more Buffy icons. I pinched this one from someone such a long time ago, at the beginning of my LJ life, but I've never been able to part with it since!

Oh pretty! I love the last one. I've had that song stuck in my head for a couple of days now. The coloring is brilliant :D
