Psychedelic spaghetti variants - new series of effects

[andrewb2012 Profile]

By now you will know that I have a great love of wild colored images & textures. This morning I was playing with 'Real Word Paint' a lovely paint program and made some colored vector curved lines which looked a bit like spaghetti to me, as I made them. So I combined a few and processed these combinations in various ways using Filter Forge 4 Professional & Photoshop Elements 11. Then I added some of my own colored textural effects in Smart Photo Editor. I liked the FUNKY results - so I converted them into 25 new effects for you to freely use - this series is called 'psychedelic spaghetti variants' numbered 001-025. Actually, I made hundreds of them but for now these were the most psychedelic looking ones from the batch. I will look through the rest later and may upload a more subdued series.

To give you an idea of the effects in action I've uploaded the original image (the first one) followed by examples of the new effects applied.

It may take a few days for this series to become live, thereafter you can find the whole series by typing 'psychedelic spaghetti variants' into the Effects Gallery search box.

These have been designed for the more abstract type of images, but I have shown them applied to a photograph, albeit a highly saturated one. Generally, I think these kinds of effects work best with highly colored images. Anyway, hope you enjoy!

Cheers,

Andrew
