Theatrical

A page to document the theatrical quality to a three year old's tantrums ;)

I took this photograph at a children's dance event, it was dark in the venue with different lighting effects so not a brilliant photograph because I'm not a great photographer but I liked the outstretched arms as N reached for bubbles.

I started with the photograph which I masked to select only the figure then positioned on an artsy paper from AP Anaphora. Behind the figure is a brush from Theater2 and behind that a modgrunge fotoblendz inverted to white and a selection of further transfers and overlays from AP Anaphora and AP Abrazo, some on color burn mode to add a bit of depth. I selected the bubbles from the top of the photograph just using the lasso tool, no finesse at all, and then positioned on top of the figure on overlay mode using the eraser to get rid of any obvious shadows; this layer was duplicated again at 8% opacity. Lastly is some paint splatters, journalling, wordart, arrows and loopdaloop.

A beautiful theatrical scene you created for Neve's tantrum. And you are right, a child's tantrums are worthy of a Shakespearean tragedy. And yes, I have moments where I want to just give it my all, but unfortunately they would throw a net over me and cart me off someplace unpleasant. A beautiful dramatic page and I love the arrows.
 
There's a Fantasia quality to this...right on the brink where it all starts going downhill! Hahahahaha! I remember those days well...this is so perfect for 3-year-old-hood. The color burn depth thing works great here; it really adds to the drama and drama we shall have with Small People!
