"Emily" - Mixed Media Collage - 8x8

Emily is finally finished. After my agonizing session in the studio with her this past Tuesday, I woke up the next morning and saw her in a whole new light and knew what direction to take.

I have discovered that I'm enchanted with the way the photos printed on cold press watercolor paper take varnish. The varnish appears to give a translucency to the layers of colors in the photos and gives them a warm luster. 

So now Emily will join Jane in the Guys and/or Dolls show.
