I've never perceived myself as a professional graphic designer, but I like to have fun with graphics and I even make some money from making or selling it. Few days ago I made this graphics which I call a floral mandala. Although it looks complicated to make, it wasn't difficult to produce such effect. All I used was GIMP and other Open Source tool called HTML5 Mandala Maker. As you probably know, you can download GIMP easily from the store, or a repository, of your operating system - I use Linux which usually comes with GIMP preinstalled.
HTML 5 Mandala Maker is an Open Source tool I've found on GitHub.
In the future I'm going to create many tutorials for non-professionals showing how to make various cool stuff. For now I'll only reveal how I made it.
I made this mandala by taking a picture of a flower in a park. Then I opened it in GIMP and I used G'MIC - a great piece of software integrated into this program which allows you to produce awesome effects. I transformed the picture of the flower into a drawing. I got this:
Then I simply used HTML 5 Mandala Maker, adjusting various parameters to get this awesome mandala.
A friend of mine told me that you can see such things after taking 280 micrograms of LSD. He asked me whether I'm taking some drugs. Unfortunately, I don't take anything, so maybe I'm insane producing such art.
What is your opinion about my floral mandala?
