Alter Egos

Alter ego: a second side to somebody's personality, different from the one that most people know. Synonyms: double, doppelganger, twin, clone, stand-in.

First, I'd like to introduce myself. I'm Sherry (sometimes known online as bluegiraffe), a new member of the Collage Obsession creative team.  I'm addicted to digital collage, although I dabble in many types of "hands-on" art and sometimes incorporate them into my digital work.

So...it's almost Halloween, and people will soon be donning costumes--funny, scary, or just plain weird. Everyone occasionally dreams of being someone else, and not just on October 31st.  Using a photo or image of your choice (choose one from below or one of your own), show us someone's alter ego. Would a circus clown rather be a professor? Might a zebra dream of being a giraffe? You might even use a photo of yourself, and show us your own alter ego...if you dare.

Please show us the "before" image too, so we can see the transformation.

I've posted  my interpretation of this challenge on my blog at
