Composite photo of a nude

Marbled Nude. Composite photograph based on original photos. 2022

Trying my hand at composite photography. Using my original art photos, I created this nude. The initial layer is one of my wabi sabi concrete landscapes based on aged concrete. The second image is a photo of a nude statue I altered into an art photo.

Celebrate the female form 

In the beautiful softness of the newborn, 

Budding blossoms of youth, 

In our fecund springtime, 

Through the days punctuated by hot flashes, 

As grandmatriarchs and aunts, 

As dowagers seizing life amidst mourning, 

And defying the term crone, stooped and bent, 

    Embracing the wisdom of age 

    With our silver mantles glowing, 

        As strong women.
