Having fallen into the world of digital art through a great website "Digital Art Quirks", I have learned to take an out-of-the-frame approach to challenges. This may not look dark, but it makes me think of children's Christmas gifts which invariably come in boxes with the pieces wired or nailed down so tight that it takes hours to set them all free. It brings out a very dark side in me!! And I am only the Grandma. So my paper doll is a captive in a dark box, even though she is dressed for a party.
Background and "cuffs" by Lorie Davison, Scrapbookgraphics; shadow box by Maya of SBG; Feathers by Kubivet (freebie) and doll painted by me. I hope it qualifies! Click on image to enlarge for detail.
Man you are some way out grandma Bev LOL Where did this one come from? I think it is great.
ReplyDeleteHA - Marie! We must spend too much time together. People are always calling you Bev! This entry is quirky beyond quirky! ....and funny beyond funny!
