Continued from [Forest in Autumn - 3] | Starting point of the thread is [Forest in Autumn - 1]
During the construction period for the previous print in this My Solitudes series - the River in Summer, I posted a page entitled 'Colour Your Own', inviting people to create their own version of the print - before I finished my own.
It was quite successful, and a number of people did indeed give it a try ... So, let's make it a regular feature; I will post a transparent line drawing again, to see what people can come up with.
Instructions:
- Download it here
- It is a transparent png file, which can be opened in any common image editing software (Photoshop/Illustrator/etc.).
- Create multiple 'layers' (positioned beneath the transparent line drawing) to make it easy to brush colour across the required areas of the design (Adjusting the opacity on some of your overlapping colour layers will make the print more closely resemble the kind of print I will be producing ...)
- Go!
Send me your images, and - just as we did last time - I will post them on this page for comment and discussion.
The thread continues in [Forest in Autumn - 5] ...
