This is a photomanipulation to digitally convert a photo into the likeness of an old Japanese woodblock print. I last posted one of these styles over a year ago. How time flies!
The image is of a double daffodil variety named Replete, one of my favorite types of daffodils. They are beautifully shaped blooms that are peach/pink with snow white. It’s wonderful to be surrounded by these beauties while enjoying a refreshing cocktail!
Hope you are having a wonderful week!
P.S. Here is the photo I started with:

Thank you, Sonel! I really appreciate the compliment. They are fun to work on, and even moreso when they turn out close to how you wanted it to look.
Oh, yes, it sure is very rewarding hon and such a relaxing past time too. 🙂
Love the Japanese woodblock effect. At first I thougt it was a painting. That is one amazing photo effect.
Thank you so much, IT! I appreciate your compliment. It’s thrilling when someone thinks some of my attempts look like a painting!
Beautiful. I love seeing your creations.

WOw Fergie, I really thought that was an old wood block print. Amazing and a super photo to start with!
Thank you so much, David!
I was surprised I hadn’t worked on one for so long. Time flies. I need to work on this more because they are quite fun to do.
ala Georgia O’Keefe; so preciously sensual!
Why thank you! I didn’t think of sensual as I was working on this, but I can certainly understand.
A lovely transformation. xo
