"Obsession" – Tag

© All Rights Reserved
(Click on image to enlarge)

This week’s Tag Along challenge #73 was "Spots and Dots."

I created the background for this, then didn't know what to do after that. I'm not sure that I like the end result, but this year I'm also setting a time limit on myself: I either have to declare my piece finished or abandon it, instead of spending excessive amounts of time on it if I don't like how it's coming out.

The words and placing of them were inspired by Calvin Klein's slogan, "between love and madness lies obsession."

I created this using GIMP 2.8.14. I made the barely visible sub-background using G'MIC Filter - Patterns - Periodic Dots.

The vintage images are from a DuckDuckGo search. (See the side of my blog for links.)

The font is Bookman Old Style Semi-Bold.
