step 4 of 11
Sky photo is cropped to fit a canvas 20 x 40.
step 5 of 11
Face of woman has had eyes color changed to become brighter, then is added to the sky and edges are faded with eraser tool set at low setting. She is then faded overall by lowering opacity setting to 60%
step 6 of 11
With a brush tool a bridge is drawn in using 3 different sizes.
step 7 of 11
Foreground is now added over the background. By lowering opacity of this photo, the background is visible through it and allows you to use eraser tool to take away the photo except for the flower stalk and leaves and the rocks in foreground.
step 8 of 11
Steps here are for creating the cellophane flowers. Brush tool draws flowers, then smudge tool finishes shaping it. Layers are made by duplicating, rotating, then slightly color changing.
step 9 of 11
Flowers just created are now duplicated and rotated into groups with green stems joining sections. Also, some green is drawn into centers to make them red and green as in lyrics of song.
step 10 of 11
Clusters of flowers just formed are now placed on stalk and are scaled with some larger ones at bottom and grading them to smaller ones at top. Burn tool also is used to darken where necessary. They are turned away from sun so can't be too bright.
step 11 of 11
Finally, a golden brown filter is placed over whole image (after merging all visible layers). Opacity is reduced to 60%.
