New Beginnings

A Celebration of new beginnings.

The parchment came from StockXchange. The image on the right is a part of a Rodin sculpture, the two cherubs are from a clip art collection, the background is from a photo I took at night through some trees of a light pole globe.

I took the cherubs into PhotoSketch to soften them and get rid of the background. There were many overlays and erasing parts. The text on the side of the parchment is "chiller" in green set at luminosity with a warp and drop shadow.


other sizes: small medium large original auto

The cherubs are smiling at the sculpture, but for some reason the sculpture gives me the chills. May be the expression on the guys face as he looms over the baby? Great job on this!!! It actually kind of sums up how I feel about the christmas season! :-)

Not sure what those cherubs are thinking, but you have removed the idea of prurience by the innocence of the palette--a fresh start for the sun as it returns to warm and enlighten us.
