Le Cirque


I had fun trying to recreate the feel and look of the old circus posters in this collage for the #49 "Stripes" challenge at digital-whisper 100 themes. Imagery credits go to Beth Rimmer and Finecrafted Designs at Deviant Scraps and googled imagery from vintage posters. Artistic filters added in Photoshop.

    The colors definitely evoke the feel of a vintage circus, along with the Big Top. What a super job!

    This is glorious! It give me the heady, dizzying feeling I always get at the circus--wonderful, disorienting and just a little eerie.
