My first reaction was to the color palette where the pink and green combination reminded me of how that was my favorite color combination for years! My second reaction was to the painterly effect. I remember doing this in Photoshop when I first got it way back in the 1990s, and it was my favorite thing to do. Then I discovered the Topaz filters that added so much to the painterly techniques. This picture must look great in your kitchen! This image isn't as abstract as we may have liked to see. Maybe if you had decided to use a photo that you didn't love so much, you'd be more willing to blast it to smithereens as an abstract! |

Yippee! Another photo app to play with! I didn't know about iColorama S. I found it with the letter "S" after it. Photo Editor and Bruch Painter. What I like best about your photo is the actual paint brush look. It looks like an artist had fun painting this image. Regarding the composition, a tip I recently learned from an MPA webinar (Maryland Photographic Alliance) is to search this kind of photo to look for a (smaller) section to crop out of it. You could probably find half a dozen pieces of modern art within your picture! |

Definitely a fun result! The bright, neon-like colors make it even more fun to look at. I remember when I first discovered the Distort filters in Photoshop (in the last century!!!) and had the most fun with them. I think I "twirled" every photo I took for a year! Your design would look good as wallpaper or a kid's room or a fabric design for drapes or clothes. Or note cards, like the "Thank You" I've added below. So much can be done with abstract images! Your beginning photo was fun to look at all by itself, too! |

I saw the dancers immediately! I guess I am human, because I've read that psychologically, we humans are made to see other human shapes in pictures where there may be no other humans! Perfect visual example for a psychology textbook! The color scheme is human, too, that is white, brown, black, yellow, and red. I love the shapes, and aren't those feet so cute! Yes, I see real feet! And there's humor in this image, too! This image would also make a great "waiting room" framed picture on the wall! |

Although there is a lot going on in this image. I see a lot of familiar things, and so I keep looking at it to see what else I see. Like a seahorse. Then a duck. pieces of paper that the wind blew off a desk, and such. Any number of stories! Rather fun! This would be a great picture to hang in a waiting room at a doctor's office or hospital where people sit for long periods of time and let their mind wander. The colors are faithful to the original image and also go well together for serenity in a mixed up world, at least for me! |

In answer to your boundary question, I took the liberty to add a 3px white stroke in Photoshop to Melissa's image. Sometimes our website's black background offers us this opportunity to play with borders and/or frames. You are allowed to do this, for this study group. You will need to click once on the small image below to see it large enough to see the border. But such a border will be visible in a regular image, fyi. |

Amazing that I hadn't noticed that one area had a different texture until you mentioned it. So I just played with the image and added some more of that streaking zoom effect. AI aided in expanding the crop. I might even like it flipped horizontally so that the streaks could be rocket power throwing it all into space! Fun! |
