Collections, was the subject surrounding the last of the on line art class assignments. Perfect for a long time collector like myself. And as it happens, I was in good company. Evidently, creative types love to collect things and there was much sharing within the class this past week.
I’ve posted only a cropped portion below, of the assignment that I submitted this week, as it is very likely to show up in my next HANDMAIDS™ art group. It was created using my absolute largest collection, ephemera. Antique and vintage illustration, an early love for me. I’ve poured over imagery as long, maybe longer, than I’ve been creating it. I also incorporated hand rendered images into the piece as well.
