My Collage Project
This week I set out to finish a project that I’ve been thinking of for almost 10 years.
Holy cow, I’m getting old.
In HS, I loved black and white photography and tried to follow in the footsteps of Ansel Adams. As a college freshman, I bought a desk calendar of his photos and planned to make a collage out of my favs when the calendar expired.
Winter 2000 to Spring 2010 and I finally did it. I made two frames into collages of his work and some of my own with red accent papers and plan to hang them stacked above my bed. Can you tell which pics are his and which are mine? Some you may recognize from my blog, but some date back to my HS darkroom over 10 years ago.
The frames were on an amazing deal, so I got this as my Mother’s Day gift to me. I know it seems silly to be making my own Mother’s Day present, but it’s something that I’ll enjoy everyday and I love that they are MINE. (And at this point the only things Caleb can make for me are messes and poopy diapers.)
