ATC "Dressing" (ex)

The re-working is mostly a filter called "Sketch: Note Paper." Some repainting with the help of Lasso and Fill. Some moving of the type, as well. Some "Blur: Smart Blur" on the hand and bottle.

The reworking. Texturize: Stained Glass" and "Texturize: Texturizer," with the "Brick" option. I redrew the bench-pallet thing in the lower left corner. Some Smart Blur on the fish, and some "Artistic: Colored Pencil" in the hair-- a trick I became embarrassingly dependent on very fast. The ceiling has some "Texture: Grain, (Type: Horizontal)."

Collage on board. Originally posted 7/4/07. Not a very patriotic posting for July 4th, but the blue type is from an ad for blueberry pancakes. So at least it was seasonal.

ATC "Primary" (ex)

The re-do, with "Sketch: Halftone," a little Cut/Copy-and-Paste, some Sharpen, and some redrawing. The type was re-oriented with "Free Transform: Perspective."

The re-worked version features mostly "Artistic: Smudge Stick." Or, as I like to call it, "A Three-Day Weekend In Portland, OR." Also some "Texture: Mosaic Tiles," some color alterations, etc.

ATC "Olivehead 4" (ex)

In the reworking, there's a filter behind the figure called "Sketch: Torn Edges." No, I don't know why it's called that, either. "Sketch: Halftone" is beneath the figure's feet. There's some repainting and recoloring, too.

Collage and colored pencil on board. Originally posted 6/30/07. The purple ice background is from an early or mid-1960s magazine. Purple was a pretty scarce commodity in ads before then. Unless grape jelly was involved. I just thought that you should know.

The redone version is mostly "Artistic: Sponge," with some Sharpen/Unsharp Mask here and there. Also minor type readustment.

ATC "Coffee" (ex)

Here's the do-over. Much repainting and re-coloring. Also Free Transform of the text. The filter is a medium percentage of "Artistic: Dry Brush," which gives a nice stony quality to the coffee beans.
