This photo was given to me by my sister. It is of a friend's mother as a young girl. She had sent it with a photo of her mother in the same pose today at 90! It was wonderful!
Would that be tissue paper? I love this! Years ago, i did a collage on a canvas using only different colors of tissue paper... Little did i know ..i would be doing similar again! gypsy
I am a mixed media artist living in Indiana.
My current collage work consists of images constructed of many layers. Layers of text, paint, paper, ephemera, old photos, found objects and stamping that evoke dreamlike qualities with layers of meaning and interpretation. I
also have a love of old “stuff”. Items others discard, I find intrinsically useful and beautiful. I have collected things since I was a child, always picking up rocks, bottle caps, “treasures” some would call junk. I have used many of these gems in artwork.
Please enjoy!
Lynn, you working with PhotoShop or transparencies, or just thin papers? Love this piece.....has a particular quality to it!

ReplyDeleteOh heck....me too! Photoshop requires too many brain cells that refuse to cooperate! LOL!!!!
