Art Every Day Month Chugs On with a London Tube Collage

Today I got creative with my resources.  I’m at my daughter’s house in Paonia, CO, with nothing but my laptop and the photos on it.  I have a cold so there was no venturing out for photo journalism essays.  BUT – I was thinking about two of my favorite images from a trip to London last year and how I’d like to combine them, so I got on my son-in-law’s computer, imported the photos to photoshop, and did what I visualized.  I started with a train from the subway, called the Tube in London.  Some stations, like this one, are in the open air.

Then I took an underground escalator photo in a tube station that I absolutely love.  I mean, I really like this photo and I took it likkety-split.  My eye saw the picture, my camera is always around my neck, so voila!

So the image below is my art for  November 9 of AEDM, Art Every Day Month.  Go to the website and check out all the wonderfully creative works people from all over the world are doing for the month of November.

I don’t have a name for it yet.  It has to gel in my head and churn around until the suitable name emerges.
