Greetings! I don't think this is cheating, since it is an original design, which includes a stylized self-portrait. I used a background technique that I learned from Tim Holtz 12 Tags of 2013 - May. You can read more about my inspiration in my blog. Blessings!
Saw your tag on Tim's tag link, checked your Pinterest stuff, very nice work. :-)

ReplyDeleteI loved this on your blog Arnold! I am a 12 tags of 2013 maker too! Great sketch. I think it has a bit of a James Dean vibe going on! Very cool.
ReplyDeleteWOW! Really great tag! The stylized self-portrait you have done is great. I love the colour and texture you have behind it as well, it really makes the portrait pop out :).
