Take a Word: Grandma's Recipe Book
This theme brought back delicious memories of my Grandma Beckie Fox's cooking. I don't think she used a cookbook, and when asked for a "recipe," she'd say, "I just put in a little of this, a little of that" (in her lovely Eastern European accent). I remember my mother once trying to follow along while Grandma made strudel (or some such delicacy) and writing down the instructions as she watched. Must have been frustrating :)...and I don't think we still have whatever was written down. But the flavors, aromas, and kitchen scenes remain in my memory as some of the happiest times of my childhood.

Sunday Postcard Art: Coffee
I'm a dedicated tea drinker myself, but some of my closest relatives and friends are coffee "addicts." I did enjoy composing these vintage images into a "Coffee" collage. Image credits for this digital collage: graphicsfairy, last door down the hall.

Our challenge this week was to create a journal page, or digital collage depicting a journal page, based on a quotation. This is a favorite of mine. All images in this piece are from my original art.

Collage Obsession: MAN
Collage Obsession provided us with the image of DaVinci's Vetruvian Man as an inspiration for this week's challenge. I used it as a background for more modern male silhouettes by allfreedownload.com, Italian text by anna corba, and texture overlay by shadowhouse. I think the guys look great!!
