So Many Thoughts...So Little Time

Stole some time today from a project I'm trying to avoid doing.

All done in Photoshop CS4. I started with the girl's hair, and tried to flow the smoke into the same rhythm. I used the quick mask on a new layer to blend out the background and somewhere in there, I erased all the spaces in the basketweave texture and overlaid it on everything. Then played around with densities and values 'til I got it kinda working right. Once I had it done, it reminded me of all the static and "stuff" I have going on in my life and how hard it is sometimes to grab hold of a single thought long enough to act on it...and Voilá!

Something sweet about this image, yet something sad too. Good idea and very well done.

Gosh I've felt like that at times...and you've visually described it perfectly.
