How could you not think that these qualify as art?

Several of them actually look like commercial art to me. Were any of these conceived as advertisements? Some of them sure look like it.

I'm curious as to how they were created. For instance, where were source images used, and where are they created by you? What kinds of effects did you use to create the final images? Do any of the pieces have any significance that you can explain or point out to us that may not be evident at first glance?

It's mostly various base images from random sources, some from the net, some I took myself (like the pictures of victoria). After that it's all layering and various filters. None were conceived as ads, just done in my own free time, some were used in websites I had constructed (or at least attempted to). All of these were created by me, with the exception that every now and then I would grab an image off the net, although you would never be able to make the distinctions between the originals and my versions because I rendered them so voraciously.

I honestly never thought they were all that good, maybe I should pursue this a bit further?

Thank you so much for the kind words, it really does make my day. You really have no idea.

Yea, I've been diggin' the photoshop since age 12, just developed a knack for it I guess. These are all real old too, just pulled them off photobucket because I'm at work. I'll get you some of my better one's once I'm home. My favorite is the mushroom one (that was one of my babies I grew from rye).

Okay, I'm home now so I can grab a few more:

My crocodile gecko.

Gonzo Homage.

Kitten collage. This cat, in his short life, was my absolute best friend. He followed me 3 miles home, his name was Hunter. I miss him dearly.

Hunter again (sorry, he's just too cute).

I turned my friend Steve into a Cosmic Axe man (sickest guitarist I know).

This is real old, and I loathe the font I used. The picture top though.

Papaver Somniferum

Old pic of me.
