Elementally Essentially Human - Photo Manipulation

 I've recently read the phrase 'elementally human' and it made me wonder... I felt his was the perfect (and very beautiful) model for what I had in mind. The image is full of contradicting elements and contrasts and the model perfectly (for me) expresses the human condition - wings on one side and despair and possibly shame on the other.

Inspired by the poem of the same name by Christie Moses

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....

Unravelling - Photo Manipulation

This is my latest photo manipulation to go with my poem Unravelling.

I created the texture for the code on the model's back:

Texture on the model's skin:

• Blood Spatter Textures
• Paper Texture
• Texture 02

The writing was created by using many, many different fonts and symbols and blending them with textures.
I also knitted part of my 'stock' images this time, took a photo of the knitting and then 'welded' it to the model's lower back. I also used the knitting to create a paper texture (or grain) in Painter and painted it over parts of the back to make it homgeneous.
