I found the old sheet music overlay from Playingwithbrushes on flickr here, and just had to use it. I racked my brain to think of a picture with a person in it (I don't take too many people pictures) and remembered this girl with the tatoo who got in the way of my camera :-) So after lots of overlays and color changes and adding a tambourine -- TONS of processing -- this was the result. I know the tambourine is in a weird position, you wouldn't play it like that, but I was too tired to find a better one. Maybe some day... Here is the original
It's wonderful to be able to restyle an old photo into something unique! I think you did a great job with this. She looks like a modern Gypsy but it has a special antiquated quality to it. The tattoo definitely gives this a native american feel and they do pow-wow with tamborines.. perhaps she's eclectic.
BRILLIANT COLLEEN ... you've really created something special with your processing .. love the tambourine and the playingwithbrushes overlay .. such an excellent warm image .. !!
i just realised that i have a stack of excellent potential overlays that i never even thought of till i read your comment about the music overlay .. yesterday i was going to google music brushes for photoshop but now i wont need to .. i'll take a heap of pics of my sheet music ... a lot of the books are quite old too .. yummo .. lol .. & thankyou ..:)x :)
