Take Me Away: 2


It's been so long since I posted Take Me Away:1 that it seemed high time to get the companion piece up here. Like the other collage, which features a girl, this one uses end papers from a damaged 1922 David McKay Co. edition of "The Adventures of Pinocchio" that belonged to my late mother-in-law. This one also incorporates a vintage map (on the book spines) and birds hand-punched from recycled greeting cards. But unlike the other piece, it includes vintage dictionary text (on the book spines) and an astronomical map behind the window panes.  4" x 4" on archival watercolor paper. {SOLD}
