I already got an ink drawing of Mr.Darcy and Hannah I made over a year and a half ago, that almost could apply.

Abbie: what does No Photo Apps mean, please?

Abbie, whenever I entered a challenge, whatever it may be, I never consider whether it would be saleable.

This image was done for a Sketch challenge

Viv, it means that I do not want those edits where someone opens an image in a phone, one click and suddenly you have a new image

This should be more than that. It is to learn new skills and to actually edit the image yourself.

filters are okay but that should not be the be all and end all of the image edit

 

Abbie, finger pointing at me :D (My kind of app!)

Your new rule just rules me out!

a - I don't have such editing software
b - nor will I invest in any
c - nor will I have the patience on learning how to use it!

Can't blame you though, Abbie, one click programs take no skill & are not worthy of this challenge.

Thanks , Abbie. One thing I learned on joining this POD !........that all my images worked as originals, but not for POD, (my style then was to heighten the
texture of the canvas as part of the original's truth about it being PAINTED).

So, I learned how to use lowly Picasa to 'improve' the Art for print . I have no qualms about doing that. I call the process: enhanced, without apology.

All the above to reply about 'one-click'....that, fortunately I couldn't, wouldn't 'do' , but, everyone here is trying to attract buyers , and make their art
unique, for that purpose..........and good luck to the one-clickers.........their purpose is to entice sales........exactly why we're here, imho.

FAA is not a High Street Gallery with a set choice of work it supports, it is for any/all artists to use to the best of their ability,
incl process, to
GET A SALE!

I have so much fun with these challenges! This is such a cute image of Abbie's sweet dogs. Since they looked at attention and were at a cute pose I thought it looked like they should be on a Christmas Card. I put them in front of a winter scene of snowy trees and put seasonal bows on them as well. I processed the image in a slightly graphic and illustrative style. I added the words "Happy Holidays" to finish it out.

I am not even close to being in the league of talent that I have seen so far. I have a little software to help me do something; but I really can't compete at this caliber. I may enter the contest, but I won't post here. Good luck everyone.

I painted the entire photo in Procreate with a hartz blending brush, added some oil paint and more blending. The Dogs were repainted entirely as well. This photo edit was done with an iPad and pen. Once the blending and painting was complete, I used two apps to apply snow like effects. The tiny dots of white glimmering snow were applied in strokes with the pen on an iPad. All I can say is I loved, loved, loved doing this edit. I am in love with these cuties, and when you paint them, blend them...you just fall in love with them. oooodeeee! Thank you so much Abbie.

"The Usual Suspects"

Abbie Shore's Oct 2020 "Edit This" challenge submission #1.

In this version I went for an amusing edit. I lengthened the left side and bottom of the image and cleaned up the floor which had berries scattered around on it. I straightened out the original image and replaced the original brick wall background with a police lineup wall including heights written on the sides. I also put police department signs on the dogs showing their case numbers.

This is my first entry into the Edit This contest. It expresses sympathy for the pets that now have to deal with their humans staying home all the time during the pandemic :)

I couldn’t resist trying to compose a Halloween themed painting with these adorable puppies. My original idea included dressing them both as cats for Halloween but couldn’t bring myself to cover them up.

Home For The Holidays!!! Most fun was dressing up Hannah and Mr.Darcy for this Holiday image, Thanksgiving and Christmas both!! Lots of layers, painting and now the family is on it's way home to be together for the Holidays with their Christmas tree and the dogs enjoying the ride in the back of the red truck.

Simple composite here with a twist on the 1984 movie title, Children of the Corn, a horror/thriller genre movie. An alternate title might be, Peekaboo, I See You.

A Paws in the Country

These adorable pups decided to take a “paws” in their country walk in the shade of this beautiful tree, laden with fall foliage. The owners couldn’t resist taking this shot.

This is an Edit This October 2020 contest entry sponsored by Abbie Shores, using a picture of their pups, Hannah and Mr. Darcy. I edited the brick wall out of the original image and added this country scene behind the pups. The lighting shading and colors had to be adjusted for the fit and I added some disturbed leaves around their feet.

I'd love to enter this contest but I'm having problems downloading a high resolution copy of the image. I'm new to fineartamerica.com. I have followed the instructions and it it starts to download in two parts. It might be my internet is slow. Still trying. This looks like a fun challenge.
