BLUE figured prominently in Ella Jane's dream


A fun thing to do is combine various works of art into a completely new one!

I have a book of days which features different works of art and I found many of the paintings featured lovely shades of blue. All images were pasted down on "A Polar Bear Hunting in Moonlight", 1899 by Alexander Borisov. The horses are from "The Dream" 1912 by Franz Marc. The flowers in the lower right are from "Iris" 1889 by Vincent Van Gogh. The striking mountains behind Ella Jane are from Eiger, Monch and Jungfrau in the Sunlight 1908 by Ferdinand Hodler. Finally, the portrait of Ella Jane and her pet are from a folk art portrait by Samuel Miller (1807-1853).

Theme: Blue is the Colour

Get the blues in a positive way - a touch of blue somewheres in your collage…

Cobalts, midnights, navy blues etc. etc. all welcome. :D

As a soundtrack, here’s a beautiful tune from Kate Bush - Symphony in Blue
