Okay, this is a strange one. I was looking at a photograph I took from a hotel room in Portland, Oregon. The photo was an overhead shot of two cyclists preparing to enter a crosswalk in the street down below. At the top of the frame was a green patch of grass. At the bottom of the frame was more street. I was staring at my photograph and visually breaking it down into its various compositional "blocks."
Hmmmm . . . Could I create a photomontage that's composed sort of the same way? So I used photographs of an old oil painting (for the canvas texture), vintage Japanese books, hand-stained paper (stained with coffee and tea), a hand-painted piece of paper (the blue and black bits of the "sidewalk"), and a couple of circles I'd cut out of manila paper.
Would you like to see the photograph I used as inspiration for this composition? It's on my blog at http://carolleigh.blogspot.com/2015/05/cyclists-in-spring.html but I do not think I can make that link a live one here at...
I'm a photographer, writer, educator based on Whidbey Island in the Pacific Northwest, specializing in photomontage work, combining photos I've taken of rust, walls, peeling paint, birds, postage stamps, trees, etc. into images that are completely new, different, and often weird. I also create physical collages, then find myself photographing parts of them to include in my photomontages. It's crazy, but it's fun! My career has encompassed writing guidebooks (primarily about where to photograph in California), newsletters (guides for photographers about where to photograph in the United States), leading photo workshops, and conducting online classes.
