Art Creations Friday and Friday Foto Collage

To end the week, I'm posting two collages today; then I'm off to enjoy other pursuits this weekend.

Art Creations Friday: Gentleman's Photo




original image

We were challenged to use a photo of an "older" gentleman. I thought he might have a fantasy of being a Cary Grant type, so I placed a "younger" version of him in a publicity photo for the movie Charade (from Google images). That's actually an image of Cary Grant's hair, cut and pasted digitally onto our gentleman. Audrey seems to be doing a good job pretending his mustache isn't tickling her cheek.

Friday Foto Collage: For the Birds



We were challenged to use the originals of some bird images (provided by Peggy Gatto) in our artwork. I made three of them into "Zetti" style birds, heralding the (hopefully not too far away) arrival of spring. Image credits upon request.

    Good heavens! Did Cary Grant's hair REALLY look like that?!?! This is hilarious. I love the way this fellow combs his moustache upward....and I love the quirky creativity of this piece!
