Description
On my last post, Claude (photosynthesis) mentioned seeing a face. I thought it would be fun to pull that face out and give it a few friends. :P
I'm not even sure this is the face he saw, but either way, the inspiration came from Claude's comment.
This was WAY fun to do!

Picasso eat your heart out!!! Beautiful
Never mind Picasso, Toulouse lautrec springs to mind! Very clever and so enjoyable!
Very cool dedi, wonderful work.
Absolutely fascinating work and great dedication
Crazy! That's really cool.
Very cool!
Very cool collage in a classic surreal style that reminds me of the dream scene that Salvador Dali collaborated with Alfred Hitchcock on in "Spellbound". However, this is not the face I saw! I just sent you an email with a blowup of the face I saw, along with text annotations indicating where the various parts are...
It's easy to see you're having a ball with these, Tara! What a fun and yet rather mysterious image. Superb!
Super abstract, your art is moving in new directions!
Very COOL Work!!!
There is a fifth dimension beyond that which is known to man. It is a dimension as vast as space and as timeless as infinity. It is the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition, and it lies between the pit of man’s fears, and the summit of his knowledge. This is the dimension of imagination. It is an area which we call ... The Tara Zone. (with thanks to Rod Serling) What an amazing imagination you have. Rod would be proud. Outstanding work!
What a great fun you must have had doing this. Great idea for collage :-) Reminds me of some maske I made with cuts from magazines.
Amazing work Tara. God bless.
Very nice comp and color.
Un voyage à visage multiple. Cool
I'm only doing a couple of images per gallery right now (after a prolonged absence---and there will be more absence too, though I hope not for too long), so I end with this. Of your many blends, this is much more defined in the individual objects, compared to many of your blends where there is a dreamy collage of that seems more intermingled. This has more of a surrealist feeling, with very clear-cut images in it, each on their own, each sticking out strongly. The face, composed of objects and with a flower in the hair (and hair made of drooping flowers!) is very suggestive, in no small part because of the objects that make it up. With car pieces, flowers, what looks like a sink drain, etc etc. You have several bicycle wheels in different angles and configurations, and an "echo" in that watch (echo because it's of a similar shape), and lots of ripples and painterly forms, and of course the glove. I see Picasso, yes---Toulouse Lautrec I can't quite see (sorry, Andrea, though I take everything you say seriously), I can see Dali and Magritte too (surrealists), and just plain Tara. It's very bright and daylight-y, and there's an uplifting feeling to it all. The big boot, along with the gloved/laced hand gives it a retro feel---as does the rose in the hair and the unicycle. I don't know if that IS a unicycle, but in your version, it feels like it. The pocket watch is part of that retro feel too, as are what look like old beautiful car tires. Hope you do more of these whenever you're able---they're uplifting, dancing and beautiful. I'll comment more next time around. But your uploads since stepping down have been beautiful...
OK not going to attempt to compete with the above comment, but for me this says.... Lewis Carroll, Monopoly (the Board game), Jules Verne, James Clavell (The Fly), and a smidge of George Orwell. Love it!
