Three Muses--text

true of heart...

Using text in my art is one of my favorite things.

Began with the text piece, Graphics Fairy, I think; then the cabinet card, from a free to use Flickr group; then the clock with no hands (one of my favorite elements) from Google; then the border and then the rose from Marta Van Eck, and finally the words from Altered Emporium.

Take a Word--Wild Animals

in the tall grass

Image from Google Images. Background pieces from Marta Van Eck's Green kit, lots of blending and watercolor brushes.

SPA--Fish out of water

As we old hippies like to say...Far Out!

 

Made from photos from the Hubble Space Telescope, altered with Custom shapes and Difference blending mode.

The words are from the Beatles.

Some photos--altered and not

The first four were edited with a duplicate layer at soft light
