Chord Progression - Grunge Guitars - Paint Splatters


A cropped guitar photograph turned into an Ink Sketch and placed upon a texture from Mayang's Textures is the image for today.

I used Paint.NET to make the Ink Sketch of the guitars and to crop it I layered it upon the texture in PhotoPaint. I added a chord progression in black for anyone to tryout. Also a piece of a song, "I'm in a Box," was placed on an angle. I also placed some paint splatters for that grunge look and feel.

Using Filter Forge's Photo Effects Lumo I selected a variation which at once brightened some colors and muted others as well as added a frame.

  2. Jane,

    Thanks! I have done many of these, some more successful than others, for a certainty! The text is from two different songs, chords only from one and lyrics from the other. This is one way to incorporate my songwriting into my digital visual art!

    Kirk
