Welcome!

This is a special Art Journal created for the 100 themes Challenge at Digital Whisper. We have been given 100 different themes to inspire and create digital collage art over the course of a year. All of my art is created in Photoshop Elements 7 and is made using personal photos, stock photos, copyfree and digital kit imagery. All sources will be noted in the post. Please enjoy and watch this journal grow!

Origins




Late by myself, in the
boat of myself,
no light and no land
anywhere,
cloudcover thick.
I try to stay
just above the surface,

yet I'm already under
and living
within
the ocean.
--Rumi


This is my entry for the digital whisper challenge #72 (Oceans). The back ground is my own made from fabric and sea life imagery from Dover. Other imagery from Dover (Mermaids) as well and Holliewood at Deviant art.

  3. The pic is amazing & combining it with Rumi's poetry just adds to it's beauty. The background,
    the colours of the ocean, the images everything is perfect.
