Found Memories Art

Being the further misadventures of an artist, her camera, some rotating art supplies, and a mind that wanders and roams while her feet stay pretty much in the same place (unfortunately)!
Found Memories Art is where you'll find a little something about collage, mixed media, and photos. Maybe a bit of life here in an old log cabin in the woods thrown in for fun.
Just a hint: click on the pics to see them better!

Collage from a few days ago?

Maybe last week, week before. I don't remember anymore. I have so lost track of time now!

This is a Color Blocks series collage called Frosted Meatloaf.

Frosted Meatloaf collage

This started with a vintage picture I got in a scrapbook I bought. I blew it up and manipulated it in Photoshop first, then on the copy machine.

Then I painted it.

The green and white is fabric. The other images are from 50's and 60's magazines.

The background is acrylics, both regular and fluid.

Such fun these are to create!

On the home front news...I'm off to my daughter's to pick up her wedding gown and the bridesmaid gowns today! Heather opted to have the lacy bits from my gown sewn onto her gown and then the whole thing over dyed to bring the total brightness down. She's a redhead with very fair skin and the super white just didn't look right on her. The maid of honor and bridesmaids all got to pick out their own dresses and then they were dyed to match. That way everyone got a dress to suit them, and Heather still gets her color! Very fair I thought. I also got my dress yesterday, and that was fun, with Heather helping.

So now I'm going back to my Color Blocks for a while then off to the big city for some wedding fun!

I just wonder what dessert this is now! I can't remember, and I sure can't tell from the pink tinged paper they printed it on! Thanks for the encouragement & glad you like the collage I sent you.
