"Vintage Toys"

© All Rights Reserved
This week’s Gothic Arches challenge was “Vintage Toys.” My piece consists of three sections: The background behind the gothic arch, the gothic arch itself, and the area inside the gothic arch, where the theme is. I used a B&W picture of vintage toys, which I colored. I tiled a carousel horse to look like wallpaper in a child’s room for the background inside the arch. The arch is the same one I used last week. I tiled a gold dot to create the background.
