Digital painting using Photoshop

In my experiments with Photoshop I have created a whole lot of semi-abstract designs and patterns which I use as backgrounds, textures and the like. Gazing at one such experiment I discerned a figure trapped within the pattern just crying out to be properly realised: Eventually like the Bride of Frankenstein she was formed from a patchwork of altered bits from various older figures melded with what was already there. The baroque machine has breathed new life into them!
