My SoulDoodles from the closet #21 - a tip how to edit white-line drawings with black background
This one is from 2015, drawn on a black cardboard with white tinted pen. Because of uneven lighting, the photo was originally bad quality, but finally edited it in RawTherapee by rising black level. The result tells for itself, the black background is perfect, the white lines are perfectly clear.
Inverted - also looks perfectly clear:
For a comparison, here is the original drawing:
Example for black level in RawTherapee: click on the image to see full resolution and find the red label on the right side! Move the slider and see the changes on the picture.
If you want to change unevenly lighted background to white, first invert it in Gimp or any other programs, then open it in RawTherapee and rise black level. Then invert it again in your photo editor.
You can download RawTherapee for free here: http://rawtherapee.com. Very fast and it has many options to improve the quality of your photos (any formats, like RAW, jpg or png.), similarly to Adobe Lightroom. Also works under Linux and Mac!

Thanks, @kalemandra for sharing us your creativity.I expect we all are inspired your creativity.
@Resteem & follow has done.
Thank you! I'm not famous and will be not :))) Editing is just something neccessary.
Oh wow! Which reminds me, I think I will post two of the art I did on black paper a year or so ago. Was never able to put the art onto a wall so maybe I should just put it on here...
Also thanks for sharing RawTherapee, I think it's going to be useful for future artwork. :D
Raw therapee is a really great tool! Try it and you'll love it!
Beautifully edited art, but i have to say one thing that no edited art can take place of original thing, i really liked the design and creativeness of original art. But the edited art are reflecting as an addon effects for the original art. Thanks for sharing this beautiful piece of art.
Stay Blessed.
Thanks! This is edited just for improving quality, not for effects. My best photos are unedited, they do not need it.
