Abstraction Painter > Oils 2 by Carl

Example

just a bit more abstraction than i'm used to making. is there any way to cut the effect down a bit?

Ah, the "soothing liquid blue dream filter".....I'm more relaxed already

I was wondering what improvements you were doing to it?

I think that is better too.....

now THAT is more to my liking!

very cool, carl. i like that

+2 The overall effect is quite nice

I was wondering if you could post the originals to compare.....

Updated filter submitted.


Your wright uberzev I have used both the H & V with the same map in the offset component, which allows me to displace the image [ hence the first pic example shows only the displaced rendering,the last one a blending in of the original], it now has that slider for blending thanks to Kraellins insight. The diagonal bias, which admittedly I was shuttered to [ thankyou for picking up ]...... is there a solution without loosing the displacement as this is integral to the effect? I don't feel it ruins this filter, but I'am always trying to make the perfect filter - especially a painting filter [ nirvana ] so any inperfections improved is

Thankyou Sherry, as a secret admirer of your traditional media filters I take great pleasure in your comments, and hope you enjoy the improvements in the filter .

Yeh I couldn't resist, another example............ Carl

yup, i like that last pic too. not so much the colors, but the 'erie/ghosting' effect is really quite good!

Just saw the pics that Gunsan did with your Abstract Painter in the User Gallery.....and I must say, the noise works alot better than I thought in it.

I'll never doubt you again

Carl one way to get around that diagonal issue is to use a different tone curve connected to a random noise curve for each offset.

I'm still amazed at how you did your circular gradient
