When a rose becomes a black hole...

Today i continued my Photoshop work/play. It is amazing how much this work relaxes my mind.

I found a colored rose picture which inspired me to my next "testing tools" in Photoshop.
I used liquify filter and stretching colors and from first image,





















i got the second one. It is interesting to notice that in this creative work, it seems some things from subconscious, come out. This thing i realized, after finishing the second picture and contemplating my work.



Actually, the first image has kinda of a signification to me and to someone else...

Working on that imagine and letting my imagination to flow, i created the second one, but see how it changed.
In the middle of the second image is a black-hole...something missing from there...then the shape of the white color has a meaning also, and it is in first plane! Perhaps the growth of the soul?!

Anyway i like playing like this in Photoshop, and let's see what else my subconscious will bring out.

How to become creative and use Photoshop...



It seems i am feeling creative and i decided to learn to use AdobePhotoshop.
I never used this before, but i had it on my laptop, so i started...

First i was checking the pictures stored and i found few:







What i did, i typed on the pictures above "Namaste" and the meaning of "Namaste".

Now the pictures are like this:





namaste,lotus


Nice :)

I know it is not a big deal for advanced to create such stuff, but for beginners it is a nice start!

Why creating these images helped me: well i started to focus on something new and focusing your attention is a good thing, doing something new and funny, and not at least it is a way to express creativity.

I found also a nice tutorial on how to create other stuffs more complicated.
Hmmm, let's see how it will work.

Anyway, on next posts i will share my newest creations! Wish me luck and enjoy!
