Art Journal 52 - Nature Inspired (week of 6/22/14)

At Journal52, Chelle gives a theme each week for an art journal entry.
The week's theme is NATURE INSPIRED.

"Hydrangea"
(version 7)
This is a digital art piece created from a photo taken beside a
parking lot in the Strip District of Pittaburgh, PA
(see the original photo below and several different enhancements)

I like this original (unenhanced) photo
but I was experimenting with ways to
make it look different or more like a drawing
in my other versions. Sometimes I end up
with a favorite, but usually I just look on
them as different, not necessarily better
or worse than others.
