Having Fun With Digital Alterations Again:)


ACEO...Inner Space Dreams of Perfection


This is an art card using digital collage. Original base photo was taken this year at the Pine Knoll Shore Aquarium at the North Carolina coast.

Inside low light shots are tough. I thought this one was a throw away, it is not in focus, the coloring to bright. But I rarely get rid of any photo...have found through experience that I can find a use for it somewhere down the line. I love a challenge:)

With some digital slight of hand this became a wonderful bright light sepia. Using an altered vintage image of an octopus, one of my vintage clock face images and digital copy of a page from a precious little book called Dreams that I bought recently from www.jmozart.etsy.com ... it came together.

I am pleased with the salvage of the photo. It is a Dream-scape with a real life creature. There is still so much to explore on our own little world:)


Size is 2.5 x 3.5 inches.
