Love



Inspired by the lovely Mystele from http://littleglimpsesstudio.ning.com/
I picked some photo faces from prints created from  paintings. The wings are made with homemade paper. Very nice and thick. She has little flowers (real dried flowers) in her hair,which is mostly covered by the yummy wax ;-)
I included some  japanese tape,and  typewriter letters spelling 'love'. Oh her little dress was from this gorgeous paper i found at Urban Sources here in Vancouver.http://www.urbansource.bc.ca/index.html an alternative art material store ( a must see if your ever in vancouver)! I used a piece of sari silk inserted thru a little cherry mini eyelet, I made with my crop a dile, and the final touch with an encaustic finish.With the ribbon she hangs about eleven inches
