Another digital collage. Each time I learn a little bit more.

My second attempt at digital collage. This one uses several of Berthe Morissot's paintings.
By Sherre

A spot of humor in digital collage.
By Sherre

My first digital collage. Time consuming, but fun! You might recognize the woman image as one I have used in other projects. The background is a photo I took on our trip to the gold country in April. It was the door of an old building on the old main street of China Camp.
By Sherre

An ATC for a Woman-themed swap. It has a "polished stone" technique for the background, and I added some old lace I found.
By Sherre

This puzzle piece is for a lady who is making a vintage swimwear puzzle. I used the spraypaint that looks like sand for the bottom of the piece. The "water" was achieved using two colors of Permapaque metallic pens.

This is the back of a coaster book I made for one of my sisters for her birthday.

This is a page from an antique book which I used the Crayon Batik technique. I them cut this page up to use as a background for ATCs (Artists' Trading Cards).
By Sherre

I loved this image; she reminds me of my niece Sarah when she was little. This is a greeting card.

Sunset on July 30.
By Sherre

I tried to capture the rays of the sun coming through the clouds.
By Sherre

Here is a larger view of the same cloud with the sun behind it. There was a lightning storm over by Mt. Shasta the night these clouds moved through the area. It was like watching a fireworks show from afar.
By Sherre

The sun was right behind this cloud and gave an unusual effect.
