LMAC FreeStyle - Vulnerable

Dear Hive friends.

How's your day going? I hope it's been fantastic, and I wish you all the best always.

Today, I've been surfing the internet for some inspiration for my latest collage project. For me, checking out a few references and seeing what others have created can really get my creative juices flowing. Even though sometimes I dive into making collages without much planning, I've found that taking a look at other artists' work is always a good idea. It helps me see what I can learn from their work.

Here's my latest creation, with a bit of a different style. Lately, I've noticed I've been relying too much on effects in my collages, which ends up altering the original images too much. So, this time around, I'm keeping it simple by just sticking to elements from my sources without adding too many effects, except for playing around with colors to achieve a harmonious balance.

Hope you enjoy this collage!

Oh, and what do you think about me placing a sharp sword near a fragile, easily popped balloon? I'd love to hear your thoughts on that. Feel free to drop any comments you have about my collage in the comment section. I'd really appreciate it.
