Digital Leaf "Print" 1


Digital Leaf "Print" 1

This is the first in a series of images of leaves that I created last week on the computer. I call these images digital prints because the way they look and the way they are made remind me of printmaking in some respects. To make this image, I used Painter's pattern pen, loaded with the pattern that I created last week from my photograph "Fall Colors". I used colored "paper" and loaded the pattern pen with digital pastel. I chose a large size for the pen, put down a few strokes where I wanted them, and then posterized the image. I also added a color overlay in yellow. The last step was to crop the result to get this final image.
