Dancer Collage


One of my favorite places to find vintage images is at the Library of Congress (loc.gov). I found an image of a dancer there and combined it in Photoshop with different patterns I created. The patterns were brushed on as the background and the dancer layered over it.

I have found a great way to transfer my digital collages to canvas using inkjet gel transfers, thanks to the "inkjet transfers" yahoo group. Various instructions can be found there.

Wheel collage



The bike is from a vintage image. The funky plaid design was created in Photoshop.
