Description
Digitally painted impressionist seascape - a derivative work based on a composite of an original image and a photograph in the public domain, courtesy publicdomain.net Yaquina Light - Oregon
... I must go down to the seas again, for the call of the running tide
Is a wild call and a clear call that may not be denied;
And all I ask is a windy day with the white clouds flying,
And the flung spray and the blown spume, and the sea-gulls crying.
I must go down to the seas again, to the vagrant gypsy life,
To the gull's way and the whale's way where the wind's like a whetted knife;...
John Masefield ~ I Must Go Down to the Sea

A very nice piece of work Lianne. Did you use a Photoshop filter to create the painterly effect?
Lianne Schneider replied:
Primarily no Carl - I usually paint in Corel but I also use Photoshop for special brushes, or light effects, etc. In this case I start in Corel particularly to do the undercoating - base coat in impasto to get the texture lift. But there are about 20 layers here each done differently - one in Photoshop using paint daubs, another in Corel using the impressionist brush, back to photoshop for a Topaz detail adjustment and so forth. Each layer on top of the previous one alters significantly the look and feel - and I try to end up in Corel for a more textured look to the "paint" - I paint by hand though Carl, as if I were painting on canvas. The only difference is that I begin with a very light black and white outline that I've created from the small original sketch using the technique I described in Holy Island. Thank you for your lovely comment Carl.
