Three Muses Challenge - Stripes
Ann asked us for stripes and I probably got a bit carried away. We have a challenging challenge at Digitalmania (Flickr) where we learn a lot of new tricks, taking inspiration from the work of artists in many different styles. This past week it was cutting and pasting a la Carmen Casanova, a Spanish artist. I made a patchwork design and cut the lady's dress from it. Her skin tones include a page from an old dictionary of mine. All papers, including sky, grass and patchwork were Googled. The trees and the bow are by Createwings Designs. The stitching is a Photoshop brush as are the white flowers. Cloud by me!!
