Demeter

Demeter   8x10 collage
This is another collage for the collage project. One person's theme is nature. I kept thinking of the nature goddesses. The papers for her dress were made as a gelatin print. I also used embossed wallpaper, home made stamp, and stained tissue paper for texture plus a coupld of photographs.

I am finding the collages very difficult to photograph well. The colors and textures are much more striking in real life. I made the error of photographing a few at night in the studio in my hurry to get them off to their recipients. I regret that very much now!

Loooooooooooooooooove it!!!

I can see how difficult it must have been, not to mention the various mediums you have been using.

The beautiful Kahlo-type face with the rich fabric. And the deer, scaled down is a lovely touch!

You go, girl!!
