When I first started doing artwork I started with Decoupage and decorated a birdhouse with newsprint, mini babies, and my great-grandma, Marianina Alesso (straight from the old country). I very very carefully cut her out of the picture and used her as a little paste up on the birdhouse. She looked great on the birdhouse, but I realized that the negative of her was even more interesting. I've had it up for awhile, and it seemed to fit this weeks theme - my premise being that it was only temporary that she is missing from the scene.
Can you imagine what a little old Italian lady, born in about 1850 in Sicily, would say if she knew her non-picture was on a computer blog.
