parallel ll perspectives – By Catherine Restivo and JQ Gaines – Seventh Edition
We are delighted to publish the seventh edition of the wonderful parallel ll perspectives column of Catherine Restivo and JQ Gaines. In this article, they have used an image taken by JQ Gaines in New York City to create two incredibly different images.
Parallel ll perspectives is all about using one image and seeing how it can be apped in different ways to create two completely diverse overall images. We have created two separate screen shows of both of their images along with their own individual tutorial audio to demonstrate this entirely. We really hope you enjoy this wonderful column, many thanks to Catherine and JQ for their excellent work.
We have also included still images of each shot too with apps used and links to the app store incase you feel inspired to try some yourself.

Finally had some quiet in the house in order to enjoy this! 😉 Great work again ladies! Such a great image to start with and I loved both your takes on how to tackle the processing. Catherine, I really love how you went a little different with this one and how you went “bonkers” with the crosshatching! 😀 It turned out fabulous!!! xoxo

Thanks for all the information on the process . I struggle with ADD so often don’t go beyond what I am familiar with. These tutorials give me some new processes to look into.
So scared of the brushes…
