Gosh, it feels like ages since I last worked in a CJ. Well, it was in 2011, and we're in 2012 now, so that's a year ago. Kind of :)
This is my entry in Shirley's CJ in the "Artistic Licence" circle. The artist she has chosen for us all to interpret is Victor Vasarely, a French-Hungarian artist who worked in the op art style.
It's a powerful image - like human yin and yang.
I've taken a few liberties with it, rotating the figures by 90 degrees, swapping the light and dark figures round, and injecting a bit of colour. Sorry VV :)
The end result looks simple, but trust me, cutting out those two figures with my little Xacto blade so that they would fit together perfectly was anything but! I think these two are attempt number three :)
Worth the effort though for the feeling of satisfaction when all those little sets of fingers finally fitted together like jigsaw pieces - hooray!
I think the next CJ is Van Gogh.....eek......pressure, much??
