Collage Obsessions - Transform

What a great idea for a challenge!  Thanks, Glenys.  I have taken a vintage photo and transformed it into a more modern style.  The image is from E-Vint, background by Irene Alexeeva.  I have done some overpainting and added new clothes.  (Original image below)

  8. Oh Marie- The transformation that occurs over the passage of time can certainly take its toll-Your piece is quite powerful. I know if she found a group of creative woman like the ones that frequent your place she would transform once again-xo teri
