“Smooshed together”

We saw a film recently called “Substance”… a dig at the beauty industry…horrible film!

So I used a very chopped up book of film stars and “smooshed” some of the bits together to try and create my beautiful alter ego…

It looks nothing like me…sorry..
 

Theme of The Week - "Create a Self Portrait in Collage"

Angie cannot post on blogger at the moment - we are not sure why so I have posted her theme for her. Hopefully Angie can sort out her posting problems and be with us soon.

monochromatic-collage: Royal Pageant

From Royal Family Picture Annual, published by the Daily Graphic 1952.

Monochromatic Flower/Flour Study

I grabbed a magazine in my studio "The Complete Photographer" Issue 29 Volume 5 1942 which featured a section on flower photography and food photography.

Stamp Sheet

Originaly from MAD magazine the perforated stamps depicted like they were from an old album were used first in the 80's for some of my early mail art photo copies. Used again here and the original images substituted with similar from old american magazines like the Mechanics Illustrated from the 50's. Love those old adverts for tyres and correspondence courses in art and design. Its been very hot again so limited to what tweaks I could do. I may go back and add some words when it gets cooler!

THEME: Use ONE Source to Create a Monochromatic Collage in Black, White & Grey

ONE book or magazine or some of your pre-cut images will do. Now have fun creating a Monochromatic Masterpiece!
