Unhinged


This is my entry for the second challenge "Doors" at the wonderful new challenge site
Doorways for me have always been challenging and " Unhinged " represents that brief moment when one goes through a door way and that moment of uncertainty takes place. One never knows whether walking through a door will bring wanted or unwanted change- but change will occur. I made this digital collage using a faux postage sheet from Artchix(background) and I cropped a door and face image and added a doorknob from three different sources. I also cropped and erased hinge hardware images and added them. Linear light and posterized applications were added.
