Aletheria and Zoe (Truth and Life)

(A recent collaboration by Sabine and me...)

haunted by thoughts of eternity

This is a great theme! I'm going to make at least one new collage for it, but in the meantime here is one from my archives. For as long as I can remember I've been fascinated by the numerous things that over the years have been used as oracles. One of them is the Ouija board, which had its first bout of popularity with the spiritualists of the late 19th century. The numerals on this collage are from a Ouija board. They are superimposed on an image of a seance being conducted by spiritualists, to illustrate a magazine article on that movement.

Image of Niagara Falls is not a photo: that's a black-and-white reproduction of Frederic Edwin Church's oil painting. Background from a women's sportswear catalog. Contemplative young man in harlequin attire by Pablo Picasso. Doves from the lid of a children's magic set.

Daisy Petal Precognator

From the archive . Hazel used to get invited to make things for the Victoria and Albert Museum Craft Shop back in the 90's. This was one such Valentines Day project that I got roped into - making the instructions and packaging for a gadget she made for finding true love!

THEME of the week: ORACLE

Christmas is over (hope it was a good time for you all) - New year is coming closer.
There are plenty of New Year rites all over the world - and many of them consult the oracle.
Lets do the same during our next week.

I am wishing you all a very Happy New Year - may your dreams come true, may it be a healthy and lucky 2018! All the best to all of you!

This is my last chosen theme for us after two month.
Who is next in line?

Merry Christmas to all of you

Right up to the last minute !

BUON NATALE! (...love for all of you!)

Merry Crimble and A Collage Full New Year!

One from the archives - was this a Xmas card ? I can't remember now. This years collaged card coming up next if I can find the photo. Do have a lovely time with your families and friends and look forward to seeing your collages in the 2018.
