Ok, here's my first Fix-It Friday entry. I couldn't decide what to do so I just ended up turning it into a digital painting. It was a little bit more difficult because I don't have my graphic tablet with me today, but I still like the end result. This little girl is so cute, I don't think you could mess up a picture of her :)
Before
After
I'd love to explain what I did in order, but I honestly can't remember. Sometimes I just go through the motions. Here's what I DO remember doing: Hue/Saturation layer overall, Surface Blur, used the Paint Brush to create some highlights, then a UnSharp Mask with the radius set high and the Amount set around 5% to bring out some of the contrast. I know I'm forgetting something.......hmmm.......oh well. Thanks to the ladies at iHeartFaces for this fun little project.
How cute! She was a little doll to work with, wasn't she? I never remember what I do when I edit. Lord help me the day I have to keep a record of it! ♥
oooh I love the look of that.
Isn't she just a complete cutie-pie?! I loved working with her photo too. :) Yours turned out beautifully.

I love the blur!
Thanks for visiting and for your comment! I love your version, as well. It's soft and dreamy. I also love the added saturation.
I love your edit! It looks like it should be hung on a wall!
It almost has a doll like quaility about it. Great Job!
This painting looks like it came from the realist period, where they paid attention to detail and made it look as real as possible. Great job!
I love your highlights and how you managed to keep her eyes luminous!
Thank you for visiting and commenting on my site. I really appreciate it!
Oh I love this!
And, WOO-HOO, 4 followers!!
Love the colors and soft blur. You are very talented. And thanks for the nice comment on my first attempt at this :)
You made this beauty look like an oil painting! Very nice!
