Leaf Relief Development

After creating my own leaf relief pieces, I scanned them onto my laptop and rendered them on Photoshop, experimenting with tone and line.

Just adding colour to the leaf relief pieces on Photoshop highlights the detail in the veins of the leaves, producing a more effective, stronger image. The blue tone creates an almost neon effect on top of the metallic texture of the foil underneath, whilst the green brings back a sense of the original natural colour. Manipulating the images digitally has greatly enhanced their quality and I believe makes them stronger as a general observation.

This method could be further developed to compliment leaf relief technique.
