The title 'Slide' came to me and I didn't quite know why at first. It's such an odd title for a poem, but it wouldn't go away. I then realised that it was inspired by a character in the Terry Goodkind series of books 'Sword of Truth'. The Slide is a kind of soul eater and it can devour the soul of someone and use it to his/her own advantage.
The photo collage didn't turn out at all like I had planned it. Not that I am unhappy with how it turned out. LOL It's one of those images that grew and changed under my stylus as I put it together.
I am still quite new to photo manipulation and sometimes find it hard to find the right tools to do what I want, on the other hand I love the discoveries I make on the way.
I have used the following stock:
Model, vintage image from M3ment0M0ri
Curtains, stock image from LunaNYXstock
Negative image (to make the film at the bottom) from ArtOfDecay-Stock
Fire, stock images from shin-rhys
The photos/images used in the 'film roll' at the bottom are all my own, so are several of the background/textures.
I have also used the following textures:

I love it when creativity takes its own direction. The picture is wonderful.
ReplyDeleteSometimes it's such a pleasing surprise when things go their own way rather than how you planned it - it's come out extremely well.
ReplyDeleteIt works really well - I don't know why, but the figure makes me think of a mermaid. Lesley x
