New vintage times painting. Created with bought, free and public domain resources.

Considering I am VERY afraid of heights I do a lot of pictures of flying. Maybe if I had wings heights wouldn't scare me so much? There is something that draws me to the sky.....

Edited and mixed up in Photoshop and Illustrator. :D

Another a digital collage of images from various (vintage) resources, including some I bought, some which are in the public domain and some from The Graphics Fairy, Vintage Printable and Karen's Whimsy. I added my own flair and and imagination and a little magic to make this. 

When I tried to explain to someone today how they come about I realised that in a way they are like a picture puzzle but they're also a story and the solution to the puzzle all in one. This one is about the vagaries of destiny and how it determines our everyday.

This is a photo collage inspired by a picture of some glass shards I took a little while ago. The shards made the shape of a heart and I added the photo of a hand drawn heart and clouds and lots of textures to create this.

All images/textures/brushes my own or bought. Edited with Photoshop.

Inspired by Imelda May's song "You're Smotherin' Me"

See video here:



and read the lyrics to the song here:

The song made me think of the interaction between "the prisoner and the prison guard" (so to speak). The obsessional tendency itself in the "prison guard" creates its own prison until it becomes unclear who holds whom prisoner. I tried to show this ambiguity of cause and effect in the image. Hence the ambiguous title. :-)

The poem just wouldn't let me go... going round and round in my head until I did something about it. LOL This is what came to me. I just followed my inner voice....
