Visionary

These are my entries for this week's challenge at Digital Mania where the featured artist is Cristiana Couceiro, a Portuguese illustrator whose work is focused on collage for clients using newspaper, tiles, vintage photos and paper; strongly reflecting a retro look. She also has a limited palette of colors using aquas, reds and ochres with use of circles and geometric shapes. I used photoshop cookie cutters for shapes and imagery from itKuPiLLi, Captivated Visions, Vintage photography blog and Lori Davison (scrapbookgraphics).  This was quite a challenge and it is not representative of (my) art- but I'm still happy with the overall effect in keeping with the featured artist's style.  What fun!

  1. Hi Lori, knowing Cristiana Couceiro's work, I can see that, even this is not your kind of artwork, you're very talented at this one! Challenge is often fun, itn't it?
    (I recognise itKuPiLLi's young Dali :)
    Well done once more dear Lori!

  2. That's the fun and challenge of Digitalmania--to try styles completely different and often out of our comfort zones and to make them our own. And you have so beautifully and originally done that!
    These are terrific!
