Take A Word Challenge - Aug. 27 th. - Clockwork

My dear friends, I will be without the Internet for a week and possibly a few days more.

I was so happy to be asked to host this week's challenge, but unfortunately, I won't be able to visit your blogs until I get back home. Thank  you so much for leaving any comments, though!

As soon as I saw the topic "clockwork," I thought of the movie "Clockwork Orange." I never saw the movie, because it was suppose to be rather raunchy, and we don't do raunchy here. I've always been intrigued by the pictures I've seen on the Net, though, as well as the name alone. I named this digital collage "Clockwork Orange." It only vaguely reflects elements from the movie. I hope you like it!


(Contains elements from digital kits by Holliewood, EMS, Chili Designs, and Laurie Ann.)

Hi Bill! I haven't seen the film either! I love your vivid colours in this piece. Suits the title! Miss you already! xx

A great challenge Bill- love the sharp whimsy and elegant imagery used!

I have seen the film but that was a long time ago. Great interpretation, love the effects.

Love your rustic 'clockwork orange,' Bill, great theme!

Hello Bill, I do like your collage. You are so clever and have a great imagination. This week I will be using the Paris collage on my friend's journal. When it is done I will send you a copy. Thanks again for your generous offer for me to use your digital art of Paris.

Enjoy your break. I did not see "Clockwork Orange" either.

I love the colours they are so strong and vibrant. I'm also a fan of all things rusty so this ticks all of my boxes.
Thanks for a great topic

Beautiful "Orange mécanique" dear Bill! (Don't see the film: Too hard!)
Your work is always unique!!

I saw the movie but all I remember is the Beethoven sound track! Thanks for the theme, Bill. Yours is a super sample (well, more than just a sample). Enjoy the goats!

Like it? I LOVE it. It's original and creative, and I love the rusty bits. Interesting that the majority of those commenting did not see the movie. Neither did I ! The title certainly fits your art, however.
(I hope your brief absence means you're away on vacation doing fun things!)

Great collage and colours. Saw 2 minutes of the movie recently, it was enough! [The bit I saw was nasty rather than raunchy]

Super work, Bill! It is just so splendid!

Christine said...
