Today’s submission for Athena and Marie’s Caturday Art Blog Hop features Misty May. The original photo was taken early one morning when she was lounging under the pergola atop the pool cover. She looked cute and the light was good so I snapped a couple photos with my phone.
I had noticed this cube previously in EnjoyPic. I thought this photo would work well with the pergola beams and individual cube edges adding lots of visual interest. Of course, I wasn’t content to stop there. I uploaded the photo into Picasa and used saturation (one of my favorite filters) to brighten and intensify the colors and then lomo-ish to blur the edges.
Here is the un-cropped original photo. As you can see it is slightly blurry, proving even a less than perfect photo can be used to make something interesting.

I hope you will all come back tomorrow to see the photos from the Cat Scout Sock Hop and find out which couples won the Dance Contest. Could be that a member of Kitties Blue might have brought home a trophy.
Thank you for linking up to Feline Art Friday, hope to see you back soon:

That is excellent!! very clever 🙂 xx
Very cool, Misty May! Love the bright colors. Saturation is one of our favorite filters too. Hope you all have had a great weekend! Sampson sends lots of kisses to Astrid, and we all send our love.
This is a really unique art piece! I love the creativity!
What FUN! We think you need a real life cube like that to solve!
Cool Rubix Cube. TW has seen that site but never found anything so cool. I don’t think she’s looking hard enough.

Thanks for the heads-up about the ugly comment. “Beatrix” turns up on my blog once or twice a year and always says something really violent and creepy. As my beloved Auntie Rita used to say, “I think she’s a little M.I., dear” (with MI standing for mentally ill — and I think this lady kind of is).
I love this, you are invited to share this here:
