Very inspired by my trip to the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao. I let myself be carried away by the flow of creativity. All my creations are made from my own photos.

Decim8 is revolutionary! She just be used at any time during creation. The greater part of my “abstract” are made with Decim8 obtained by superimposing various effects. I want my creations are like me, I need to feel that I control the character of the picture.

Number Five – Snapseed

I remain torn between Snapseed and PhotoToaster. These are two very strong applications rework and very intuitive. For me they are very complementary. I work a lot on intuition, I alternate from one to the other.
