Take your picture and give it a new look. If you own a post processing software it should be possible to work with layer and masks. So use it and change the look of your work. In this case i tried to give it the look of an old b&w picture. Base is a digital picture, converted into b&W and layered with a structure to achieve the wanted look. A bit of curves and minor adjustments and it was done. Try it.

Be bold, try it. Do not think and ask yourself what others may say when they view your pictures. They is NOT made for them, but it is an expression from you, out of you. A way you felt in that moment. Thats why i show this to you. So be bold and strong.

In the cellar

I was ready to leave home for work, when suddenly she, my sweet neighbor, was again in the door. She was a bit nervous, a bit excited. She asked my to follow her. Ui, what a surprise entering her house, going downstairs into her cellar. She said, she found some paintings at the wall and was unsure what do do. I took my gaslighter when we reached the position at the wall and i switched it on. In the soft and warm light we saw this:

Again a pinting of her relative. WOW, this cellar must be very old and another thing was obvious: The painter had been in the cellar with all his painter equipment. A riddle, unsolved. What was the relation between the painter and the relative ? Until now, we don´t know. Mrs. Robinson, looking fascinated at the picture said, that she will call the local Gallery to get a final judgment on this painting….”They have specialists”, she said.

I switched off the gas lighter. It went really hot and nearly burnt my fingers. It was dark in the cellar and after a short while i switched it on again, moving it around and another surprise at the wall:

Mrs. Robinson was so excited. Perhaps this is worth lot of money. So she hurried away towards the next telephone. I quickly followed her. Stay tuned for updates …
