Then, I couldn't just leave her without wings . . .

3 3/4 x 4 3/4 collage using a vintage picture reprinted, carefully trimmed and hand-colored and arranged with wings from Etsy's Supplies to Go and a crown made from Dover clipart on a watercolored background.
And here's a larger version reworked in another color. I think I'll give this one to my brother for Christmas. You can't tell but both collages have just a smidge of glitter on the crown and wings.

Oh! It is just a beautiful picture. She makes such a sweet fairy!
I have always wanted photoshop....I love what you did here, it's really beautiful and what a wonderful gift to give!! She's so precious!
so precious, and what a tribute to your Mom! I just obtained photos from my parents when they were young, so maybe I will play with this idea too1 Thanks!
You are brave to learn photoshop! I just can't figure it out and would love to take a hands-on class for it someday. I have PS elements on my computer. I can crop and resize..that's about it!
I love the fairy you created from your mom's picture---it's gorgeous. Glad you snuck a little art in.
The original pic of your Mom reminds me of Tatum O'Neil in Paper Moon. I think it's wonderful that you have such a beautiful picture of your Mom to incorporate in to your art, very cool!
