Hello Pumpkin!

I used two of the pumpkin images and the girl is from iStockPhoto. I'm experimenting with gradients in layer masks and layer blending options. I wanted a "harvest / autumn" feeling while still retaining some warmth in the colors. I also used the "maple leaf" brush with the burn and dodge tools, then put a bit of grain on the right part.

Love that leaf brush, but never seem to have the right place to use it. How perfect for this image! : j

Ah, Tormod...love your artistic style. The two different eye colors are noteworthy...very attractive, as in, fantastic means of attracting attention. Stunning. BTW, the font for Hello Pumpkin is great! Care to share the name of it?

Tormod: great to see you show up for Paul's challenge You are certainly getting the hang of some pshop techniques. I learned abous the alyer mask-gradient in the HP online class.
This is a wonderful and kinda sweet seasonal piece. Keep showing up, pal!
