A Flamingo makes its home on Pandora

Collaging and flamingoes. Plus lots of orange

I was messing around with acrylic inks and collage. Who does not love a flamingo? I added a fish from some very thin paper I found in my plan chest, and planted some trees made from interior design photos. It ended up looking (to my mind anyway) like the planet Pandora from the film Avatar. 

So the flamingo had to be a guest. To enhance her pinkness, I painted over the photo I had collaged on.

What I really enjoyed about htis process was that, by sticking very unrelated images and pieces of paper, I could unite them into a coherent image, using inks and paints. 

I rather love this image though I have to say, it has no deep meaning at all.
