"Aviateros" – Postcard

© All Rights Reserved
(Click on image to enlarge)
This week’s Sunday Postcard Art challenge was "Steampunkery."

I invented the word "Aviateros" which is a combination of Aviator and Rhinoceros. I like Steampunk, but I always struggle to create the art form. I'm pleased with how this piece came out.

I created this using GIMP 2.8.10.

The vintage images are from a DuckDuckGo search.

The words are from the Bible.

The fonts are:

This is lovely, it reminds me of Dürer's rhinoceros. Valerie
