My Scanogram Art

I originally posted this image in the photography forum but was told that it would get more interest if posted here. This is the abstract/contempory digital art forum right?

Anyway this is an image of my hand simply just by scanning it and then manipulating it like crazy using photoshop filters and brushes, no camera was used.

Re: My Scanogram Art

That's incredibly creative! It really looks sketched to me. What's the background?

Re: My Scanogram Art

I love it!!! Looks like you used some PS writing brushes for the background?
I really love those types of brushes and the grunge ones too.
Here is one I did some time ago with some PS brushes. In this image I made a crop of my daughter into a brush to use. I call the pic "Daydream".
Thanks for sharing it with us, very original!

Re: My Scanogram Art

Thankyou!

The background is a writing photoshop brush, I can't remember the website I downloaded it from.

I want to print out and frame this so bad but I forgot to save the original size!..This is the only size I have which is poor quality even for a 4x6 print, so...looks like I'll have to do it all over again. Live and Learn..lol.

Mamamouse I like your creation too!..very emotional and colourful.

Wow, this is great! Very original. I've often thought that the lines on palms look like tree branches as is.

Re: My Scanogram Art

Great picture there, and interesting approach/process.
This reminds me of art that used a photocopier some years ago, before scanners and pc's. It's interesting because it's multi-stage. The first stage is almost performance art, or it could be collage or something else. And there's a shallow 3D element and the control of the scanning and capturing process is very analogous to photography. That could be the end of it right there with a click of the print button. But you've brought that performance/staging/collage/photography into the digital world and of course the possibilities are infinite.
Sorry if I'm rambling and stating the obvious, but I find this very interesting and significant. It's like you've discovered a new medium. I'm getting ideas to stick all sorts of things in my scanner now.
