Talking Dreamy Fun

I've been having a lot of fun with PhotoShop since I found some tutorials on youtube. The "Before" Picture below is actually after I did some work to make myself look better. I didn't want to put my untouched-up face on here, but you can see it and read how I did it at http://www.flickr.com/photos/29319271@N08/

Before:


After:


New layer, filter, artistic, poster edges
filter, distort, diffuse glow
layer opacity 70%

New layer, choose airbrush soft round and change the settings to Texture, Clouds, Scale 1000% , Depth 100%
Paint with different colors: white, blue, red, green, purple

Don't assume I am completely stupid when it comes to photography and photoshop. I do know a little something, but I, like everyone here, come to this great place to learn more.

an adorable shot. try doing your layers an artsy stuff and then leave the eyes natural. I think you might find that it looks pretty nifty.
