this is for you, Leon. i was too busy to get a nice shot of myself so i settled for a photo taken some time ago...only gave myself half hour to stitch and complete this....

so here it is....honestly....i got a shock...the two 'sides' of me are horrifying!

one looks like a overstuffed doll and another looks like example of evil stepmothers in pictorial storybooks....i contemplated on just deleting it for a few minutes, then decided maybe i should let you guys have laugh / scare :)

pp work - very careless stitching....nothing done to original photo....does this qualify, Leon? i hope noone gets any nightmares from this:) comments, critiques and workshops would be great!

have a nice day!

Well done.

Nice to see the real you Eleen ;o). I really like the way you present your composite faces here, the PP work is excellent. I only would have liked to see the real you a bit sharper, and I would have tried to keep the text off of your chin.

I also like the effect of the shade on your eyes in your "left" face compo. You don't look like an evil stepmother to me ;o).
TFS.

C'est la mode, tout le monde se fait en triptyque, le tien est bien réussi, joli montage et jolies couleurs

As I already mentioned before, you're creative and here is another result! Good picture in this way, "you together" and as Leon says, nice to see you....

EEEeeek !!!!

Excellent such originality floating heads, and your description horrifying is how we have all felt.

The truth still lies behind these dreamy eyes, and wont pass the lucious lips. A face I like, not for the glamour or sheer beauty, but for the character that speaks from it.
You show your "difference" in the way you present this stitchwork so unlike the other "contestants".
(don't bother about your "other-selves", everyone has its good and evil, smart and stupid etc. sides ;-) )
TFS Eleen

Just shows that the two sides of you are not complete without the other... hmmm did that make sense, I realy love it that you have done this in a more round format, I have got realy sick of seeing the same boring straight line of faces for this one.

I actaully realy like this oldpicture of you. There is a poignants in the eyes that realy shows the gentle and intuitive nature of you Eleen. But yes the composite you's are a bit of a worry. One looks like she kisses too much, and the other people would run away from...

Great work. I like the words you have used... But realy not too scary!

Creative work here, Eleen and so nice to see the really beautiful you. Nice to see a different format from our standard original, too. In our defense, I think this was all new to us, at least it was for ME, and doing it in a straight format was the easiest way for us beginners. Sorry some found it tiring...but we all get an A+ for our joining spirit and showing our funny faces, don't you think? WTG Eleen!....:O)

Hey girl :)))
Very good portraits here,I like it.
Jean Michel

Eleen, you look like a model (all three of you, smile) You have lovely hair. This composition is very nice I like the placement of the profile, excellent! TFS

Bonjour Eleen,
J'aime beaucoup ce que tu as fait. Une manière un peu différente de traiter le sujet tout en restant dans le même thème. Bravo. Amitiés, Patty.

I like the way you have blended the photos into this collage. Nice to see you close up, even if it is three times. Amazing how we look so different with 2 sides put together. Well done on this challenge. I wonder what the next challenge will be.

This is a great composition Eleen, quite a change from the "Wanted" Posters a lot of us have made. You look so lovely and gentle in your original photo. The other two are so different to each other, mainly because of the hair line. The top one looks very mysterious and the baby doll one looks like the skin is made of porcelain. You did a great assembling job Eleen, glad you put in your effort.
