layered

About the layered technique:

To create an image that has multi-layers, I use my own photos as a starting point. The other layers or backgrounds are made by artists who specialize in creating different handmade textures on canvas or richly textured paper and transfer them into a photo file that I can use. These textures can give various, exciting effects like grunge, canvas, old paper, rust, paintbrush strokes or soft touch as a dandelion fluff.
Using Photoshop program, I carefully add my chosen layers with different blending modes, removing all the unnecessary details and letting the beauty of the important details show. I can also modify the hue setting to obtain the desired color shade or add certain filter effects to enrich my image.
I really hope that the images presented with this special technique will please all of you and will keep the eyes of the viewers entertained by a visual feast.
