Cajsa’s Flickr Choice Of The Day: "Grief", a Composited Screenshot from GRIS

Cajsa Lilliehook covers the best in virtual world screenshot art and digital painting

"This is from a game called Gris that appeals to me though I am not on Steam so I have not played it. I watched a walkthrough that is exquisitely beautiful on YouTube [see below] and I can imagine this game could be addictive. Imagine playing a game in an ever-changing watercolor world. 

"I like this screenshot posted by Kimmy Ridley with a quote from Anne Roiphe for a title: 'Grief is in two parts. The first is loss. The second is the remaking of life.' The duotone from pink to blue which seems to encompass the idea of there being two parts to grief; the picture seems blown out by light, though that was probably done with a gradient overlay of white to transparent, not with lighting effects."

Thank you so much for sharing this with us, Cajsa. It's amazing to see games like this that are like playable art. I'm really curious to check it out myself.

Thank you so much for choosing my screenshot of this gorgeous game in your feature. I am so loving this game. One of my favorites:) Regarding the editing, I only used a layer of pale silver glow and then a layer of Reflector EFEX silver toned. All just blended on PS. Thanks again and very humbled. I hope more people choose to play this gorgeous game xoxo
