Time for something a bit different

I'm struggling with the portrait I'm attempting right now, so am taking a break and have gone back to more simple mandalas :roll:

Still struggling with the portrait, so here is another mandala.

A clay pot with flowers. The flowers in the top of the pot are brushes I made from photos of the native flora in my garden.

I really like that and the fallen head adds the icing to the cake.

Years ago our music was delivered on vinyl - firstly 78s, then 45s and 33s, being the rotation speed on a turntable. Artists dreamed of high sales giving them a gold record or a gold plaque, some of which were delivered in a format similar to that below ... OK, showing my age here.

Ella - thank you for that; you are right, my home needed residents. So here they are.

OMG, there is a guy on Youtube who reminds me of you. He makes videos of pixies in the woods.

Erisian - interesting videos :hehe

Just Playing with some paths, stroking them and rotating; et voila - a mandala.

Then turned it into a seamless pattern. Isn't GIMP great!!!

Usual problem - struggling with a portrait so turn to other Gimp options.

Very nice, OMG.

Still working on a difficult portrait but was in a frivolous mood and had some Gimp playtime ... so I called this one "playtime" :roll:

Only just out of winter and 34C already; so, having had an orchid created by the Deep Dream Generator, I thought I would do my own this time.
