Dreams

My very first double exposure! I remember always being fascinated with double exposures as I browsed Flickr and I always assumed the process was very complicated. However; I finally watched a tutorial on youtube and discovered the editing steps are quite simple.

 

The art sample in the hair is a multi-media piece by the talented Hector Alonzo Benavides. He is an American Folk Artist (often referred to as Outsider art) from Texas. My uncle was an art collector of American Folk art and after his passing we inherited much of the artwork. The other day my mother and I cataloged the artwork and I found myself falling in love with the style.

 

If you're interested in exploring Outsider Art I recommend Jesse Reno and Mose Tolliver.
