Three Muses: "Old-Fashioned"
For this theme, I created a digital heritage collage featuring my late parents, Harry and Bonnie London, in the early years of their relationship and marriage (and the early years of their twin daughters' lives). The background is a copy of a postcard written from my Dad's mother in Eastern Europe to his father in America, before they married and settled in Baltimore, Maryland. I'm thrilled with the way the piece turned out- it gave me a happily nostalgic and peaceful feeling to look at it when it was finished. :) I'm not sure which baby in the photo is me, but I'd bet that I was the one on the left, making faces....
