I created the above image after stumbling upon an image of a model called Brenda Lynn, a sports illustrated model wit woo! Anyway as soon as I saw her I had a vision in my head of some birds flying past her but wasnt sure quite how to bring it out. So by playing around with a few filters and splatter brushes I managed to create this piece. I think it took me about 2 evenings to complete so thats about 4 hours worth of work I guess. The piece consisted of also using illustrator to create the flock of birds and also the lines and curves you see.

The image on the left is the original image I took of a HD (High Definition) models website which is of a model called Brenda Lynn.

The image on the left is a screenshot of the flock of birds I ended up tracing our in illustrator and importing into Photoshop. Nohting too complex here really using a WACOM tablet certainly made life slightly easier. Here I have clearly done a bit of 'post production' in photoshop after importing the illustrator vector graphiocs I created.
