Kicking off the Motif, something where I mixed an old Master with a new one and a bit of my own fantasy 8) 8)

Anyone cares to guess who the two artists are?? Both are easy I hope :oops:

Is one of the Masters Dali? I see traces of his "Persistence of Memory." I also see objects from India, but cannot come up with the other Master.

In any event, it is a striking creation Fabiola, great use of the elements, I love it !!!!! :) :) :)

I don't know much about Art History or artists, and could not tell one from the other, but I know what I like and this is amazing 8) 8) 8)

Aside from the superb use of filters, I think that it's the lighting effects here that put it over the top Fab :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Way over the top :) :) :)
Just havin' fun

Rembrandt paired with Dali -- now there's a creative combination!!!

All the Dali connections sent me off on the track of trying to come up with another surrealist, and all the while I was thinking that lighting effect is really dramatic -- wonder how Fabs did that? Doh.... :oops:
