Description
I see the 3 fates sitting closely contemplating humanity.
The Fates were three mythological goddesses and may refer to:
Moirai, the Fates of Greek Mythology
Sudice, the Fates of Slavic Mythology
Parcae, the Fates of Roman mythology
Norns, numerous female beings who determine the fate or future of a person in Germanic paganism
Three Witches, characters in Shakespeare's Macbeth
The Fates, characters in Disney's Hercules and the English name for the Moirai" - Wikipedia
This photograph of two flowers was turned into a painting and then into a reflected painting.I am retaining as much of the original textures as possible. I am using only the colors that originated in the picture when it was a photograph. I am using these colors as a starting point for the picture. Then I choose which textures to use to complement the colors. Then I start painting and when I have painted to my hearts content I create a new layer, reverse it and overlay it onto the original image. I call this a Reflection.
I am really enjoying using the photographs I have taken over the years as starting points for new individual artworks. I lover the tools that are available to help us create ever new and changing art works. A Wacom tablet and Photoshop software have opened up a whole new world of creative options for me.
