Visual Art Gifts

The Autumn Delight Kaleidoscope art series was inspired by one of the photos I used for my holiday themed posters and cards in my holiday greetings store at Zazzle and as posters at Imagekind. This series has a soft painterly texture and canvas feel. You can’t really tell with the small preview, but if you click through and click again on an image at Imagekind, a large preview will open and that will give you a good idea.

This one is my favorite artwork of the series.

Yellow Chrysanthemums 1 by Christopher Johnson

I’ve been photographing quite a few chrysanthemums and I’ve been trying to do something different with the images each time. With this series, I’m working on giving the yellow chrysanthemum flowers a watercolor look in post processing. I really love how this look accentuates the petal edges and has great texture when viewed up close.

FYI – Another version of this floral artwork is the first free (for personal use) PC wallpaper background for newsletter/update  subscribers. E-mail Subscribers will be sent an e-mail sometime during their first month with links for it in 1024×768 and 1280×1024!

Here are a few of the products available at Zazzle with the artwork
