This is the last of the Halloween collages. As with some of the others, I topped it with a piece of vintage, spider-web patterned, glassine paper to make it look like she's riding through the web. I wish I knew more about the toy. The image is recycled from a book publishers' fall catalog from years ago. I didn't think back then to check what book it might be illustrating or whether there was more info before ripping the cover off the catalog. Sigh. 4.75" x 4.75" on archival mat board. Matted to fit a standard 9" x 9" frame. $55 + $7 shipping & handling.
Collage 365: I'm mad, mad, mad about paper. After years of writing, I'm now storytelling through daily collage making. I rely on used materials from antique/vintage images & ephemera to found & recycled objects.
