The Three Graces Updated
Charites,
known in Greek mythology as The Three Graces, goddesses of such things
as charm, beauty, and creativity. In Roman mythology they were known as
the Gratiae.
Thanks Sabine! I found a vintage book about beauty and then bought two more copies online because I like the photos. I have used the book numerous times but NEVER thought of repeating one of the images. This is a good challenge.
Updated indeed!., but still looking a bit 'vintage' .... I remember myself with a 'curl' like this woman on my forehead ... exactly in the middle ;)) I think it was in the sixties. Lovely collage Angie!
My mother used to say a poem about a girl with a curl: "There once was a girl/ and she had a curl/ right in the middle of her forehead. And when she was good/ she was very, very good/ and when she was bad she was horrid!"
So beautiful modern Graces, Angie! I like the idea and how you made it.
