Fairy Opera Starlets . . .

A series I am preparing to submit soon. We'll see what happens . . .

Genevive . . .

3 3/4 x 4 3/4 collage using a digital vintage photo, and wings licensed by Butterfly Utopia, both manipulated in photoshop, reprinted, carefully trimmed, and re-colored and retouched by hand. These elements were arranged on a double background of watercolored paper with handmade trim.


Anna . . .

3 3/4 x 4 3/4 collage using a digital vintage photo, and wings licensed by Butterfly Utopia, both manipulated in photoshop, reprinted, carefully trimmed, and re-colored and retouched by hand. These elements were arranged on a double background of watercolored paper with handmade trim.

Marie . . .

3 3/4 x 4 3/4 collage using a digital vintage photo, and wings from Dover clipart, both manipulated in photoshop, reprinted, carefully trimmed, and re-colored and retouched by hand. These elements were arranged on a double background of watercolored paper with handmade trim.

Christine . . .

3 3/4 x 4 3/4 collage using a digital vintage photo from SuppliesToGo.etsy.com , and wings from Great Musings, all manipulated in photoshop, reprinted, carefully trimmed, and re-colored and retouched by hand. These elements were arranged on a double background of watercolored paper with handmade trim.

I just realized, Christine's wings are wrong - they should be in profile. I have no purple backgrounds made to do her over in time. Hmmm.

You are too kind and generous. I have so much to learn. I keep looking at other people's art and I just have to figure out a way to have more going on in my work. It's just not knockin' socks off yet. But, I'm good and I'm even better when I get nice comments like yours! Thank you Di!

They're all lovely! Though Anna is my favorite (don't tell the others!)
