Terri has been running Creative Cue at Three Creative Studios for several months. I hadn't had time to really consider participating before but I've decided to jump in now and use it as a photography prompt. She posts the new Cue every Sunday and the word for this week is "Wreck".
Fortunately I don't have a car wreck or anything gruesome to show you but I found this "wreck" in our home that drives Chris insane. I don't cook often enough for this to drive me crazy but he threatens to toss it all out about once a month.
It made for some interesting Photoshop effects.
I first converted it to black and white and then applied the colored pencil filter.
In this version I went back to the color photo and applied the rough pastel. I played with the settings within that filter until I got this, which I think is pretty cool.
Really interesting! I would never have thought of my kitchen drawer as a wreck but it is! Great pics.

What a happy wreck you made of the original, but then I see nothing wrong with the first take...looks just like mine! So, are you calling my kitchen drawers "wrecks." Okay...if the shoe fits!

Maybe now you can just tell Chris that the 'wreck' is really art fodder? Just sayin'

Now I know why we have to have all those gadgets in the kitchen .... it has nothing to do with cooking, thank goodness!

Hey, how'd you get that picture of my kitchen drawer??
Nice arty take on the clutter though.

I like it....maybe I can tell Tim some of the messes around here are just art fodder in waiting. I really like your take on it.....very cool.

Hi Vicki,
My friends came over and we had a play day sun printing with setacolor paints. We started out creating landscape fabrics, then we went wild. I made a slideshow video of our fabrics:

I thought you were retired now? You should have PLENTY of time to cook and get fed up with your kitchen and want a total reno. And while the contractors are there, have a new studio built, too!

I like these. I am always entranced with what we can come up with in Photoshop.
