Necklace and Photoshop art



I haven't been well for the past two days. I had a massive dose of food poisoning, I felt like I was going to die on Monday night.
Thankfully I'm over the worst now, I still feel weak but hope to be able to go back to work tomorrow.
The necklace above is one I completed over the weekend.



The paper above is a piece I decorated a couple of weeks ago.



This is one of the beautiful tiger cubs I saw at the weekend, he's about nine months old. He was busy watching a very large goldfish in the water.



I scanned the paper into Photoshop, changed the colour with hue and saturation, then added some background with brushes, some from this site. I then added the tiger and faded out the background, it took all of a half hour, the wonders of Photoshop.

Ro, so sorry you haven't been feeling well. Food poisoning really sucks!

Your new photoshop piece with the tiger is so cool. The "India" background works so perfectly here.

What a wonderful necklace - you know I enlarged it to see all the glorious detail. And the tiger cub is adorable!
So sorry about the food poisoning - an experience half a life time ago still hangs in my mind - be kind to yourself for a few more days.

Hi RO! I hope you're feeling better now... ooooh.. how awful. I've only had it once (really bad) and never want to relive it again.

Sending warm wishes for a speedy recovery!

Loved the gorgeous photo you took of the BIG cat and the photoshop work you've done. I would love to learn that program one day. You inspire me!

Take care,

Holly
