Collage Obsessions - Sport





Hello Everyone, Happy Valentines for the 14th for those you love this bit of nonsense.  This week I have chosen to challenge you to create an image inspired by sport - this could be the equipment, the players, the spectators, or the venue.  This will give you the opportunity to capture the grace and energy that we so often see in sport photographs.

WHAT TO SUBMIT
All types of art are welcome: digital art, cards of all types, journal pages, scrapbook pages etc...just have fun. You may use the images above as they are in the public domain courtesy of Wikipedia http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Tennis#Players

HERE'S HOW TO SHOW US YOUR WORK
Please post your art on your blog or other site, and leave a link to your work in our "comments" section.  OR YOU MAY LIKE TO TRY OUR LINK FEATURE.

As it is Summer here in Australia and tennis and cricket are the most popular sports, I have chosen to take tennis as my inspiration.


My credits can be seen on my blog site http://digital-collage.org/  Have fun.

Tangerine Tango

"Tangerine Tango"
 #dd4124
 “Sophisticated but at the same time dramatic and seductive, Tangerine Tango is an orange with a lot of depth to it,” said Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Color Institute®. “Reminiscent of the radiant shadings of a sunset, Tangerine Tango marries the vivaciousness and adrenaline rush of red with the friendliness and warmth of yellow, to form a high-visibility, magnetic hue that emanates heat and energy.”

Time for a new color challenge. Let´s take the color of the year 2012 for our inspiration. Even though, you can also express the words "Tangerine" or "Tango" or both in your collage.  Words don't have to show up in your collage.
