Cottage Living room Art...


I was perusing prints off the net today for my white picture frames...



I thought I wanted roses...maybe some kind of flower bouquet...but... the prints were pretty low quality once I printed them out on my low quality printer...hee hee!
Well...I decided, instead, to play with my Photoscape Photo Editor and see what I could come up with...

I just picked a random picture... which was this one...and started playing with it...




And ended up with these...






I think they are really fun!


I am going to continue playing with them and see what I can come up with.....and maybe this one cuz my Louis is a lil odd....

I would recommend this program to anyone that likes to make inexpensive cottage art! You could possibly print them out on canvas and it would look like an oil painting...so many possibilities...Hope everyone is having a wonderful evening!

    Those turned out really cool. I'm loving all the blue. The chair slip cover turned out great. Man your are on a row and I can't wait to see what you come up with next

    Louis is a doll! He really DOES love that chair, doesn't he? heehee

    I think you are onto something with that program. Can't wait to see more.

    This is a great idea.
    How cool is that to be standing in the very room captured in a photo and looking at it all at the same time!
    Your living room captured at a moment in time.
    I like the idea of having it on a canvas like a painting.

    Maybe I'll give this a try - although right now I'm not hurting for artwork; but space to showcase it! LOL...
