Oakleaf Hydrangea (Posterized)

Tonight I used Painter to create a posterized version of the photograph that I published here last night: a picture of oakleaf hydrangea that I took at Long Hill Gardens. I like the way the leaves are turning from green to purple. Posterizing the photo intensifies the colors and simplifies the shapes, but in this case the difference is somewhat subtle unless you look closely. I also used Painter to create a digital woodcut from the photo, and I plan to post it here tomorrow.
