Five Pumpkins (Digitally Edited)


This image started with a photo that I took on October 5th when we went to pick up our farm share at The Food Project (our CSA). I saw pumpkins in a bin and took some quick pictures.  The pumpkins looked great, but once I got the image on my computer screen, I could see that some cleanup was called for.  So I opened the image in Painter and used digital pastel to clean up the pumpkins and simplify the background.  The stem of one of the pumpkins had been broken off, so I used some cut-and-paste and some digital pastel to restore it.  I was pretty happy with the result, so while I had Painter open, I created two more versions: one posterized and another with woodcut effect.  I plan to post those images here soon.
