A closer view! Inchies for Dena's swap. The theme is Greek Mythology. Boy, was this a challenge for me. I haven't studied Greek Mythology since high school. A little research and it came back to me. Who said Inchies aren't educational? LOL
I chose an image found on the internet. It looks pretty simple, but is actually a little more to it than meets the eye. The original image did not have the clouds in the background. I have altered this image by hand cropping the winged horse and then added the clouds to the background by using layers. Those of you who have worked with graphic software programs will know what I mean. Not too complicated, but a little time consuming for me anyway.
The feathers - Oh my! I thought this was a neat idea, but after doing the first two, I was thinking: "What did I get myself into?" LOL
I pierced tiny holes along the wings and inserted each feather and glued from behind for a neater, cleaner look.
If you are in this swap, I would be grateful if you would come back to visit and let me know if one of my creations landed in your home. Thanks!
So...
What do you think?
