hey i saw your sig, so i thought i'd help you a little. so you wanna start from scratch, well the only thing that i can teach you is:
-make a new image
-pick your colours (fore-/background colours)
-go to filter>render>clouds
-and then just experiment :)
what i often do is, to create a starbust effect:
-filter>render>clouds
-filter>pixelate>mezzotint:long strokes
-filter>blur>radial blur:zoom, 100, best.
take a look in my gallery, almost every image is done with that, so you can see what different kind of images you can make with only that effect!
i hope this helped you a bit.
I created "Into the Abstracts" with a program called Photoshop. If you would like, I can tell you where to find the tutorial explaining how to make an abstract image simillar to "Into the Abstracts." Thanks for commenting on my picture!
Thank you for your comments on my image Octopus Ink. I didn't make this image with wreckless abandon, nor did I plan it. It was kind of a combination of both. I started out with something else in mind and this kind of took shape instead. I'm glad you liked it.
Hi! On "End of Summer" I was in the pool in september taking pictures of butterflies and plants around the edge.I happened to look down and see that one dead leaf floating and thought that it was a signal that summer was leaving. I happened to catch a leg in the shot. Thanks for visiting.
Wow! I love your work. What program do you use? Still it's the artist, not the program, but I think that you have major potential (more than I can say for myself)

Are you sanctified in your
judgment of me?
-Someone else's fate
We are deciding
-I can see much clearor now I that I'm blind
-I was told there'd be no one to call on when I feel alone and afraid
-I used to be frightened of dying I used to think death was the end

If my comment on your work ever seems to criticise, it does not. It is always so that we may learn together.
Hey Sam...thanks for stopping by my self titled *PrettyFae*...
Hmmm, a poem may have looked good...but it's too late to add one, now...I can't really be bothered :P
Anyway,
Thanks again for your input!
Best wishes
