Friday the 13th – a lucky day. My husband and I were married on a Friday the 13th 41 years ago!
Home from Colorado and I’ll miss the in-person help from my son-in-law Steve. He knows photoshop inside out, so when I wanted to do something like give the appearance of motion, all I had to do was say, “Steve, I want this to look like a pinwheel. How do I do that?”
So todays entry for Art Every Day Month is Daisy Stairs.
When I was at Pismo recently I took a picture of the stairs leading down to the beach. Since I love the pattern and symmetry in photos like this, I knew I wanted to do more with it. Here’s the original photo.
I had to crop the photo to end up with the square shape; also, I wanted to ditch the greenery. That and a few other steps produced Pink Daisy Series Three: Daisy Stairs.
Just in case, here’s the first two.
Daisy Wave, and below, Daisy Wheel
The ever-present daisy is in the floral gallery on my web site. Taken in Redstone, CO.
Oh my I adore your ferris wheel pink daisies — what fun! Isn’t AEDM completely inspiring?! Thanks for the visit over at the Mother Henna blog. Love seeing what you are doing digital — I sort of fell off the digital wagon back in spring, but it’s something I want to come back to…will look forward to seeing more as you play and experiment here this month! Miracles to you! k-
