Old Soul

This is my entry for this week's Three Muses challenge where the theme is "Warm Colors". Imagery used in this collage from Christine Rennee, Beth Rimmer, Lorie Davison, Finecrafted designs and the lovely Asian elephant from Tumblefish studio.  A recent trip to Cost Plus Imports inspired me to design this after viewing their wonderful Indian themed  home wares. Digital painting and filters added to create the spicy warm colors so inherent to Asian/Indian art.

    It's so rich, and very warm. I love the idea of an elephant having a soul.

    Ooh this is warm. I can feel the heat of an Indian summer coming off of it (and smell the spice too!).
