Dali Delusions Macabre Monday offering

Better late than never right?

Collage pieces take a long time to create,

and even longer to dry in the rain!

After some issues with barometric pressure and

humidity, I deconstructed my original project, salvaging what

I could along the way, and started all over again.

I used an 8 x 10 canvas, painted it with metallic acrylics,

and began decoupaging various Salvador images and quotes.

I really fell for this Dali image from The Octopode Factory ,

and wanted him to take center stage on this project.

After coloring him with Copics I glued him to a piece of

card stock. Then after fussy cutting that, I glued some cardboard

to the back in lieu of foam dots for added stability and dimension.

Then I Glossy Accented him for added protection.

I got to use some of those creepy doll eyes, which I thought

were appropriate somehow along with Mr. Hitchcock.

I also managed to destash a bunch of brads, adding a

metallic masculine touch. 

The melting clock is another Octopode image that I felt

needed some Glossy Accents and some cardboard

for stability and dimension also.

Although glitter doesn't tend to show up on camera,

I did use some gorgeous black glitter from Doodlebug

to accent that cwazy mustache! I used touches of glitter and

Stickles throughout this project for some serious sparkle!

I also continued using various quotes around the outter edges

for some more interest.

I really enjoyed stepping out of my creative box and making

a pretty cool collage hanging to represent my fondness of not

only Salvador Dali's art, but his profound words as well.

Thanks for stopping by!
