Fashion for Ladies - 1920's

Collage, painted background. 

The two ladies dresses on the right were made from used envelopes.

Patterns on Drawers

Collage in a sketchbook. I started with a drawing of drawers, below, then applied the collage elements - text from a silk painting instruction sheet and pattern pieces from a magazine.

I used brusho and aquamarkers for colour.

Vintage Collage/Memories and End of Sketchbook 9

The Three Muses challenge is Vintage Collage/Memories and I have to confess the two above that I am showing are old ones but I do still like to look at them. They are actually part of an altered book, a vintage sewing book, which had some informative and very amusing pages in it. The face in the top collage is my grandma who died in 1993 and the girl in the lower collage is my big sister as a tot in the fifties so they do bring back memories.

Below are the last pages of sketchbook 9
