Surreal Challenge: Magritte Me

This challenge was to used a famous surreal work as an inspiration. I've been a fan of Rene Magritte's whimsical and mysterious art since college, so I chose his work, The Man in a Bowler Hat. Magritte used his own image as the man. Juxtaposing ordinary elements in unusual ways was a key theme in Magritte's work. I juxtaposed my hair on the man and created a more painterly sky background. Magritte often used a sky filled with white clouds as a background. http://www.wikiart.org/en/rene-magritte/man-in-a-bowler-hat-1964

Used Anna Aspnes' APP Reflections, Sea Cove and Inflorescence.

Thanks for looking.
Love the background you created and the way you used that bird! Thanks for playing!
