The Three Muses Challenge - Autumn

Tee hee!  I decided on collage style for my sample picture and the problem with collage is that it is difficult to get started and difficult to know when to stop so you are lucky the kitchen sink isn't on show here.  The "autumn goddess" is my own creation.  I painted the face in ArtRage and cut her clothes from background papers.  Other elements are from Rosey Posey and Tangie Baxter both of Scrapbookgraphics.

  2. I hope every one takes the time to ENLARGE your collage Marie. There are soooo many layers used !! (Have you count them ?)
    I'ts also a little folkloristic (I don't know exactly how to name this style in English :-)
    but it speaks to me !! So pretty !

  4. My favorite thing to do is digital collage, Marie, and you have mastered it to perfection. Coupled with your ArtRage skills (and this face is beautiful), and your flare for wardrobing, it all comes together in a glorious piece of art! BRAVO

  13. Marie, she is GORGEOUS, (you have such talent with ArtRage) and she is surrounded by true Autumn colours. As Rian suggested I enlarged your collage and was rewarded with so much detail and blending of colours. A standing O from my corner.
