Girl With Two Chairs

Back in the day I had a fling with surreality, and that came out again as I was developing a memory page about my daughter's college ballet class. While experimenting with blend modes on THAT layout, there was one that I cycled through where my daughter literally lost her head. I grabbed it and ran, adding a free-use vintage photo of a man holding his head from my files, and two free-use internet chairs. My daughter and I had engaged in a talk recently about wolf-whistlers on the city streets and the objectification of women in general, and I guess that was on my mind.

This is not a product intensive layout, although the papers from the Cosmopolis and Sweet Pea Artplay Palettes (Cosmopolis solid papers #1 &5 and Sweet Pea Artsy Paper #5) are responsible for the texture in the background; the creases are from the Kreased Textures No. 2 set. The Watch script comes from the Take Flight Artplay Palette. The blue tones come from blending in a landscape photo I had taken while travelling in Iceland.

The construction is very simple--layering things over other things with various blending modes to see what happens, and then using layer masks to remove anything not wanted.
Love! The way you treated the photo of your daughter, the man, the chairs. So surreal. Wonderful.
 
Very creative page design, love what you're doing with blend modes!! This is so artsy!!
