Description
I think that art is simply about solving problems. In my case, I begin with a photograph, then wonder what if I do this, what if I do that, then see what I get, which leads me to adding something else, trying some more effects, and so on, FOR HOURS ON END! In this case, the final image didn't please me. I wanted to have a certain look, but couldn't figure out how to get it. After another few hours of experimenting, doing online research, and asking friends, I resolved the issue and here's the result. Whew!
This picture combines my photos of train graffiti, the side of a building, various handpainted papers, signs, ink, and more. I like the weathered and textured look, the warm colors, the subtle chalk-like arrows that point the way to the faded Coca-Cola sign on the right. And now if you'll excuse me, I'm going back to bed!
