Transform Usual Into Magical
Creative Gaga|Issue 42

Kevin Roodhorst shows us through the process he adopted to transform a stock image of the Buddha and transform it into one that represents the mysticism and divinity the being represents.

Transform Usual Into Magical

Classic Image to Supernatural. The stock photos that were used were bought on shutterstock.com. Working step by step on the image, aspects of mystical dimensions were slowly developed by adding external elements, colour balance, textures and the likes, thereby providing a supernatural quality to the overall imagery of the enlightened being

Step 1 This was used as the input image for the project. The main idea was to bring forth the underlying aura or vibe of holiness and divinity to the otherwise straightforward imagery that can be seen over here.

Step 2 Started with masking the Buddha statue with the brush tool in quick mask mode. Once masked, a hole was created in the middle of the concrete pieces that had to be placed on top. This served as a base for the process that was to follow.
