This is my entry for the
Sunday Postcard Art Challenge where the theme is "Street Art". This is a digital 4x6 composed from a background from Scrapbookgraphics ( Lorie Davison) overlayed with photos of my son Aaron when he was in college at The New School in New York (Mannes Jazz Program . I added clippings from one of his free concerts (he gets paid now!) along with a subway map. All images cropped and background erased and opacity reduced. Soft light and pin light filters added in Photoshop for a painterly effect..

ReplyDeleteGreat work. The text showing up on his jacket really makes it and interesting study.
ReplyDeleteLori this is an awesome piece, you have such a sensitive eye for colour and form. Standing O from my corner I think.
ReplyDeleteOh wow this is unbelievable.
ReplyDeleteSo wonderful layers. I love thios one Lori. One of your best.
Excellent work, and a marked contrast to many of your recent pieces :)
ReplyDeleteI feel the need to listen to a blues diva in a darkened room ;)
Very Nice!! Really like this piece Lori!!
ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing and artistic collage! And how wonderful that you have used your own images (well, your son's images) in the design. He must be a very talented young man.
ReplyDeleteAs always, stunning artwork, Lori. You are a legend.
What a masterpiece! Your ability to draw together a digital work of art never cease to amaze me. APPLAUSE (again)!
ReplyDeleteThis is my all time favourite of your magnificent art, Lori, probably because it is 'Jazz & New York' love Jazz & I would love to visit New York - an awesome masterpiece!
ReplyDeleteTruly fabulous, Lori!
ReplyDeleteLori, this is fantastic. How great that you used a picture of your son and one of his flyers - this piece could definitely be a poster for the band - I would go!
ReplyDeleteCindy :)
Awesome postcard! A very "streety" (!?) LOL feeling :)

ReplyDeleteLori, you have excelled with this piece. I love the colours, the depth and images and it's so nice to have he added personal touch.
ReplyDeleteGreat card!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous digital artwork; super layers and colours.
ReplyDeleteYour postcard is gorgeous!!! Great to hear about your technique too.
ReplyDeleteWow Lori - this is outstanding and to have it full of such personal meaning as well - it sounds like you have a very talented son. I think my favorite part of it is how you've layered the text of his poster - it really elevates the composition. I'm inspired!
ReplyDeleteCoooool. I feel wistful for touring city streets when I see such a lovely image of one (Can you guess that I am nowhere near a city)!
ReplyDeleteAmy
Great work!!
ReplyDeleteIt's so much fun to see you using an image from your son's flyer. It goes well with the street map and image you have chosen. As always, it is very lovely.
