Mixed Media Monday - Blue and Brown - Starry Night



This is a combination of digital painting (in ArtRage software) and a old city skyline by Christina Renee. The picture was, of course, inspired by Van Gogh's Starry Night. Everything is greatly altered and I used a final "impressionist" filter to achieve the grainy result.
