Nightly Battle (Oct 2016 Style Challenge)

Nightly Battle (Oct 2016 Style Challenge)

Description:
Created for the October 2016 Style Challenge - "oh, that's not my style". I'm really not good at the art journaling style, so I thought I'd give it a try. It was 3am on a bad night when pain was keeping me awake, so this is what came out. Sorry for the downer. :(

I used papers and supplies from Dawn Inskip's Feeling Blue Collection with Hue & Saturation recoloring on the papers.
I shot the self-portraits in my studio a while back using a remote trigger; lighting set-up with AlienBees was with main light at 45-degree angle on camera left and fill light (~1 stop lower) at 45-degree angle on camera right.
Photos processed in Photoshop using Fresco, Conte Crayon, and Charcoal filters. I lost track of all the blending modes and masks I used to combine them.
Fonts used are Dear June, Fish and Chips, and Hefalo Brush.
Title created with styles by Mommish - Stylin #157 Chip & Stick and Stylin' #116 Chipboard & Gloss.

      this could totally be your style and i wouldnt have known otherwise - it's brimming with pain and emotion - the sort we sometimes find hard to cover up - i'd say u excelled at the challenge and hope you got a better night sleep after

      This is a fabulous art journal page! Wow. I would have never known it was not your style. And I would say don't apologize for putting your emotions our there on a page. I hope that scrapping helps. Wonderful job on the challenge!
