Suzie's World - (enlarge)

When I just need a break from doing Family Christmas Presents

(Images) every so often I need a break. This was an image of a

Black Eyed Susie that I processed in CS6, added textures, different

blending modes and then took into Smart Photo Editor where I could

choose an effect. Then I brought back into CS6 and used the

Transform Tool and another Texture to finish things off. For some

reason thinking harder on this kind of image is a form of relief - go

figure !

Gail,

 Wow...beautiful creative image with wonderful processing.  Take care, Patsy

It may be Suzie's World but it's you who brings it into existence for the rest of us to enjoy. You have a very special ability to create abstractions that don't seem at all random but are glimpses into a magical but somehow coherent reality that lives within the imagination. So nice to have you contributing again, Gail.

Thank you so much for your visit and thoughts shared!!

Well I wish that I could write as well as you - you have such a gift. I always enjoy and appreciate the words you write about my images. Thanks so much Jack.

FANTASTIC processing indeed!!! This is one superb piece of art!!! Bravo. Rates a 7 in my book!

thanks so much.......I knew you would like it Warren!!!

Wow! This would be the perfect Christmas gift in a postcard! Who said you are taking a break from presents?

Beautiful abstract, Gail.

A nice project well designed and very well performed, ciao Giangiorgio

You and texture make magic.  Excellent work, Gail.

All that work paid off.  Beautiful image!

Hi Gail

What a brilliant visual artist you become when you find the need to switch off fron the pressures of life. A gorgeous creation from that other place.

This has your signature style for sure!  Lovely!

Bubbles of crystal, drops of mist, cells through a microscope, all falling on a circus umbrella. A most artistic and imaginative creation. Congratulations.
