A Hunter's Grave / Collage for @georgeboya's contest

avatar

I have worked with collage quite a bit but usually in a more abstract sense. George put out this awesome contest for his collage community so I was inspired to try something a bit different!

A Hunter's Grave

For this collage I mostly used Vintage images from the british library archive!

Here are a few of the images used:

I also did some painting and drawing in between the images.

I went and animated it a little bit with pixaloop app also:

Ooh well done you, and I love collage. I'll have to check out this collage community, though probably don't need one more thing on my plate. I love the moving rays and digital collage is just plain fun to make.

Awesome! The fun thing about layered collage is you can keep moving things around until you like how it looks!

Do you use some type program or editor to create these? Or do go old school like the old days folks? Thanks!

I used photoshop to make this :) It's mostly cut and paste with a little painting/drawing to make things come together

Such a cool and weird artwork, the maestro Alien Cat shaman is giving the rythm and Elephant Jane is dancing under a dark sun! I love it, thank you so much for taking part Julia:)

Brilliant. Really wonderful to look at. I'm trying to work out the concept, but it almost doesn't matter. The elements are wonderful...each one...and they go together beautifully.
Now that's a how a collage is done :)
