New Collages

Well, I'm back after a much needed rest from blogging and after a few challenging months including family issues and major computer problems. 

Here are some things I've been working on.

This is a collage I made with paper, dried hydrangea, rhinestones, silk flower and an air dry clay piece at top. The substrate is a recycled mass produced poster on a mat board of some sort that one of my neighbors didn't want anymore in her house. This is my favorite photo of Marilyn Monroe.  I was going to use it for the bottle below that my daughter wanted, but she selected another Marilyn photo. 

I'm not quite finished with this bottle. Still waiting on a quote from my daughter that she wants to include of Marilyn's.

 

Here's a little glimpse of my craft room.

 

 until next time......

Recent work done on recycled CDs paying homage to my favorite, Old Hollywood and its actors.  Don't forget to vote for me for the Prilosec sponsorship for my passion for learning art.  Find the button on the top right of this blog and thanks!!

 The punched holes are there to put all of these into a ring book.  More to come.
