The first clouds in the skies…

I made this as a second piece for the horizon composition practice as well as for another color challenge at Big Picture. We were supposed to start with a color scheme and then pick elements etc. I chose the lilac and green theme from the decor8 blog which suggested something grassy and flowery.

When I saw the happy couple amidst all those flowers I had to think of a line from the Threepenny Opera by Kurt Weill and Bertolt Brecht. “Erste Wolken am Himmel des jungen Glücks” (First clouds in the skies of young happiness). And there they are already!

    Heather, thanks! That is an interesting idea. I have seen things printed on fabric and they always turn out really nice.

      Thanks, E.H. I am planning on putting all the collages together with all my other stuff into a photo book. Maybe it will turn out as the cover, but I’ll see.
