Greetings!

I'm pleased to introduce a new feature series that I will be doing for our group, Independent-Manips . This series will highlight some really great DeviantArtists who create photomanipulations from only their own stock photos and resources. This practice is becoming more and more popular in the photomanipulation community; in fact, using your own resources is the wave of the future. It gives the artist a lot more artistic freedom both during the actual creative process and afterward, when it's time to consider whether to sell the art or use it commercially.

Today, we are featuring Avi-li a Russian artist with a knack for creating beautiful color harmonies and using fantastic composition in her work. Through her art, she takes something ordinary, such as a leaf or a flower, and creates something extraordinary from it, such as a fairy's resting place. I hope you will enjoy her work. Don't forget to support her with a like and/or a watch if you like what you see!

And if you are interested in learning to create art from your own resources, why not join our group, Independent-Manips ?
