Quotes & Lyrics Challenge 2 - DAZZLE

Dazzle camouflage, also known as razzle dazzle or dazzle painting, was a family of ship camouflage used extensively in World War I and to a lesser extent in World War II and afterwards. Credited to artist Norman Wilkinson, it consisted of complex patterns of geometric shapes in contrasting colours, interrupting and intersecting each other.

Unlike some other forms of camouflage, dazzle works not by offering concealment but by making it difficult to estimate a target's range, speed and heading. Norman Wilkinson explained in 1919 that dazzle was intended more to mislead the enemy as to the correct position to take up than actually to miss his shot when firing.

Dazzle is also the title of an album by Orchestral Manoveuvres in the Dark.

Picasso also claimed that the Cubists had invented Dazzle.

Lyrics & Quotes.....Smile & Up

I have joined in with the Lyrics & Quotes Challenge over at  www.thecraftbarn.co.uk

The aim is to create an image using the given challenge words.

The words must form part of either a song lyric or a quote.  So here goes.

 My first one is SMILE..... I chose the Nat King Cole song "Smile though your heart is breaking"

My second one is UP....... Do you remember the hit song 

"Up, up and away in my beautiful balloon" by 5th Dimension.

For the challenge you can use whatever medium you like and any format.

It could be in the form of a book, tag, ATC etc., you choose.

I've started off in a sketchbook but I probably won't work directly onto the page each time, I will however  put whatever I make into the book so that I've got a complete set.
