WaterLouge: A Watercolor Fantasy

Happy very late Thursday evening everyone! I was afraid I wouldn't get to post anything at all today, but it turned out to be possible after all. 

Some time ago my sister got an iPad to use at work. She found an application that changes photographs into virtual watercolor paintings. I sent her some photos I took while on a water color adventure, myself. I didn't turn up with too much that was ready to post, but this little app turned photos from a lovely little spot into a dreamy painting pastiche. I thought I might share them with you.

This one shows a slight rainbow lens flair.

The Original photograph

The application is called Waterlouge and it takes the above photo, for example, and gives you the options below, and some more as well.



It was good for me to watch, as it shows you the graphite, the lightest colors going down first and the darker colors being added eventually. Hopefully I'll remember some of those principles as I sit down with my watercolor set next time.

great little place 

Thanks for checking out this short little post. I've got lots more photos from my Oregon trip, but am not having the best of luck putting those things together quite yet. More from me soon, hopefully!

Thanks for reading! Happy (now) Friday! Haha!

P.S. I thought I might share with you a little song song that I feel goes with the view. :)
