Sandbox365 - Textures: Dried Statis

Thank you everyone for your kind comments on and Favs for my post yesterday for the Sandbox365 theme textures. Your encouragement and kind words persuaded me to have another try today to help me consolidate my learning. I don't think I will ever achieve mastery of this technique but at least I quite enjoyed myself today!

[Graeme Stevens]

Great work

[Joan Robillard]

This is your best one yet and I really love it. You are becoming a master. Using the texture in the shadows was masterful.

[Debra]

Gorgeous.

[Nancy]

Gorgeous colors! :)

[Maggiemae]

A very pretty picture - could be a lovely painting with the graduated colours! fav

[Cally]

really pretty and lends itself to the technique.

[essiesue]

Please keep playing around with this technique. This is so pretty as was the one you did yesterday.

[Susan]

Such a pretty technique, just love this, Richard, the colors are stunning.

[Dianna Coile]

Beautiful! Almost looks like a chalk drawing. Fav

[Daryl O'Hare]

This just popped out at me as I was looking at the home feed. Very cool Richard!

[Gwenllian]

Richard this is fab! Spotted on trending and was surprised to see its yours, a new style!

[gloria jones]

Excellent...looks like a painting...wonderful colors, composition

[Richard Sayer]

@joansmor Actually, any progress that I've made is thanks to you - I was so rattled that you turned your creative nose up at my first two tries that I was determined to produce something that you would like! Very effective behaviour modification technique... but don't do it again - mentor's orders!

[Chris K]

very pretty. like a watercolour

[Tom]

Quite a different series Richard, but once again you have shown mastery in technique and composition. Very beautiful work in pastel

[Annie D]

like a painting - the colours texture and subject suit each other beautifully

[Leigh Anne Sanderson]

Just like a painting! I love the textures and softness

[Rosie Kerr]

Your best one, yet! Wonderful job.... I knew you would stick with it. :) Fav.

[Lyn Todd]

very artistic and a delicate touch.

[Marta]

It can't be a photo... It must be a painting! Well done!

[Cindy]

looks like pressed flowers on paper

[Issi Bannerman]

This is very pretty.

[Margo Sayer]

Very watercolour, very good.

[Elfur]

Beautiful capture and effect

[Linda]

Lovely shot and with the soft effect of watercolor.

[Debs Stott]

It is decidedly addictive! Very artistic!

[Joce]

Wonderful art !! Well done Richard. Fav

[Barbara McCahill]

I really like this. The texture and colors work beautifully together. I am enjoying your learning journey with textures and it is helping me learn as well.

[Kate]

Gorgeous! I started with a brightly colored photo today but then slipped back into the grunge. I prefer this pretty photo and processing. Still love the purple orchids! May have to emulate that one...someday!

[Rosan]

Lovely artistic rendering with the textures! One would not guess it to be a photo.

[Margaret Obey]

Beautiful Richard.

[Margo]
