ARCHITECTURE the Art of using space

Hi... hope your weekend is going well.
Linking today another piece to Art Journal Journey challenge where the theme this month is 'architecture' and there's loads of amazing inspiration to see.


This digitally created piece is incorporating my own Steampunk lady artwork (soft pastels) I've used before and a photo of helter skelter on a local pier. Tried to make it look like the helter skelter was emerging from her hat. The soft coloured patterned background is digital too which I made a couple of years ago. The remainder is clipart/tubes type of thing. All digitally blended together.

Thank you so much for visiting today
Have a great day

  5. This is really terrific and so unusual. The colourful helter-skelter (coming from her hat!) makes such a contrast to the old buildings on the right and having your pastel lady in front is ingenious. It all works so very well. Wonderful blending too.

  7. Hello Gill,
    it's faszinating what you create with your paintings and photoes digitally!! Thinking of a helter skelter (I've never heard or read the word before) by her hat is great fun and the real helter skelter with this lovely girl in blue looks more than great! Who is this little girl without fear? I love how you put everything together, the steps and windows and arches (?)..... And the big balloon at the corner.
    Beo
