Art A Day- Self Discipilne

Ok kids- here we go....
Many of you know that for the last
two years I have gone back to school.
My schedule has been hectic.
Trying to get projects done has been sometimes difficult.
Journal times have been nonexistent.
My blogging did the same thing for awhile.
We went MIA for several moths .
We are back and with a vengeance.
One of the many things that I have vowed would
be done once school was finished was daily journals and artwork.
So here we go.
Today's art piece is a Photoshop collage piece.
Mainly created by working a vintage public domain pic
and one of my recent beeswax pieces.
I wanted a romantic image on a strong textured background.

Here are the two pics.





Then with some layer work.
A little smudge and erasing. I got what I wanted.
It has no title currently. If you have a suggestion please let me know.
Talk soon
-Mike

Wow Mike! F-A-B-U-L-O-U-S!!! now for a name...hmmm... *looking beyond*? or maybe just *beyond*? She's got that mysterious look about her...maybe something catchy with *mysterious* in the title.

Slaid Cleaves a new find. Damn good stuff. I'm really digging this album of his. I had never heard him until a few days ago...

Thanks CeCe! You have such a heart.

What can I say, your work is always great and you know I am a fan. :)

I also want to tell you that in general I am not a fan of music on websites but I always enjoy it on your blog. You pick some really cool tunes to share. :)
