Little Piggy in the Mirror 2 by olivetreeann

Little Piggy in the Mirror 2

Playing around with overlaying textures today. You may recognize the trees from last week. A black and green version of them faded into the blinds on day 2. Piggy preferred the pink and brown version, of course!
So cute, love your creativity!

@chrismarfil Thank you Chris! Just having fun and avoiding the fact that I have to go out in the frigid cold today and get some wood! A problem you do not have in the Philippines! I hope the clean-up is going well and smoothly in the aftermath of the storm.

@olivetreeann Thanks Ann, yes it does doing well.

This is so clever! I am amazed at the concept and also your post processing abilities. Do you do this work in Photoshop?
January 23rd, 2013

Great processing. The layering added texture.

@kerristephens Thanks Kerri- I know it looks like a reflection- but only the mirror is a true reflection in this shot.
@pflaume Thanks Lisa! I don't have Photoshop. I use several on line processing sites. This one was done in iPiccy. Their texture effect gives you the option of uploading your own texture, so for my first layer I used the trees and painted in Piggy and the mirror except for the light. The second layer of texture was a texture from their program- a weathered page of paper.
@sarasdadandmom Thanks Terry!
@bruni Thank you Bruni! How are you feeling? Good I hope! Right now I love that fireplace more and more with these bitter cold days making my joints ache!
@digitalrn Thanks Rick! She keeps us smiling!
@daisy Thanks Kathryn!

I like Piggy's desk - it looks very expensive! :)

@alia_801 Thanks Alia! That's just the processing magic. In the original shot she's actually sitting on a card table that used to belong to my grandmother!
@jesperani Thanks Jennifer!

I do envy your ability at editing but it is fun to learn from your experiments. this month you have amazed me.
January 24th, 2013  
Very clever work going on here!

@pandorasecho Thank you Dixie- I really do just dabble and most of the time do not have anything particular in mind.
@ruthmouch Thank you Ruth! One experiment after another.
January 24th, 2013

@nadaa @sangwann @prttblues @henrir @maggie2 @karenann

Thank you Nada, Dione, Bev, Henri, Maggie, and Karenann! Glad you are enjoying this series. When I first chose this shot, I thought it would be an easy one to change up- but I'm finding that is not the case! I barely post one picture and I'm thinking about the next.
January 25th, 2013  
hmmmm....interesting. i like the way you did the layering here. you're so clever with this processing thingie. i like it.

@summerfield Thanks Vikki! This was probably the simplest I've done all week (because I can remember what I did!!). Two textures were applied to the original- one a straight texture from iPiccy (on the bottom) and the second the shot of the trees (from my computer). Each time the texture was applied I painted Piggy and the mirror back in, but I left the trees in the light area when I applied them. It's not as hard as it sounds.

I think this one might be my favorite so far, love the tones and texture here!

@tanja_1211 thank you Tanja- it was my favorite until #5 and #6 came along!
