Manipulated Monochromes



It's amazing what Photoshop has allowed the artist to do in creating new images from original works. This began as "Purple" then I added various filters to the original painting. From there it's all just select, copy invert, rotate and place. Presto, a new image. Maybe I'll call this "Purple Reflections."
Poster edges and plastic wrap are the two filters used here. After creating new layers to apply the filters, the layers were merged and then copied and transformed. This type of Kalidascope image can be created with any image that has exterior posative and negative spaces. It is the play on posative and negative spaces that gives the image its power.
