99 Paintings: DAY 28



Day: 28 "BreeShanti": 
I decided to continue on with my original plan for a photo montage piece that lead to yesterday's Madonnagoth discovery.  I'm adding to my repertoire of types of book covers I can do with this piece.  It is common in the book trade to have simple covers with a photo of an attractive person with some simple elements and textures added for thematic reasons and to add a little spice.  Neither this person nor her costume exist in real life.  This piece is fully composited from bits and pieces.  My goal is to make it hold together, fool the eye, and not read as photos plunked together. -- Tom
