I saw the girl as a modern Venus, therefore I used a shell. (like the painting of Botticelli, the birth of Venus).
I made some pictures of the shell ( I store this thing somewhere on my a bookshelf). I used the magic lasso to cut it. I also had to cut the airoplanes from two different pictures (pfff, this is so time-consuming). The shell exist out of two copies,The top layer is partly removed, to make place for the girl and the water. The droplets are made of a special brush in Photoshop Elements. I blurred the original picture and put it on on 'screen'. The bottom layer is a photo of a darkblue sky with clouds.
Several Decades ago, Shell put out a number of series of cards. They also sold albums to put these cards in. Everytime you went to Shell for petrol, or anything else, they gave you some cards. The idea was to collect the whole lot, and generally they were most obliging in allowing you to go through the box, to get the cards you were missing.
I love that it still has the sand on it. My mom belonged to a shell club many years ago here in Florida.
The Shell Collection, which is specially designed for FueraDentro by the dutch designer Jan des Bouvrie, consists of two chairs, a bank sofa, four tables and a sunbed. The fibers of the chairs, sofa and sunbed are made of Batyline and the frames are made of stainless steel. This combination of materials makes the SHELL collection ideal for outdoor use.
The most notable characteristics of the SHELL collection is the rounded shape of the shelllike bucket seat, which brings a stunning sense of shelter. The seatings are carried out in a coaxial structured Batyline® fibre. The frames are made of electro-polished stainless steel and the tabletops are glass.
