The image is a freebie from Ali Mayes (where are you Ali?). The suitcase was Googled, the British passport is from Tangie Baxter and the background columns are from Createwings Designs.
You know what I love about your art Marie...you get this great creamy looking texture to everything. This is wonderful I adore the mono-tone coloring and the elements are superb!!
This is fabulous! The coloring and the subject matter are unmatched. I'm Irish ancestory, so you know how much I love this!!! And yes, my Irish eyes are smiling!
Marie at her best, lovely vintage piece & colours! This could have been me some 39 years ago leaving the UK - without the hat of course, but I did have a case full of labels!! (not a tear in sight!)
Absolutely stunning work of art, Marie. You have set the scene for this lovely young girl to embark on an adventure which might change her life. Love it. Kudos to you.
Love this piece, Marie! The sepia vintage look is beautiful as is your young girl about to explore the world. I think the suitcase with all the labels belonged to her godmother who passed it on to her.
I've missed Ali too ! She created always such beautiful designs !! *********** Your vintage and sepia tinted piece is my style and her longing look for the travel intrigues me ! The stamp (of brush ??) on the background is also a great find Marie. A fantastic entry !
Marie, I love the old times feeling of your piece! To think about how much more difficult and time consuming traveling was in those days makes me really appreciate all the brave tourists of that era.
Wonderful page!!

ReplyDeleteAmei este trabalho.
She's so elegant, as it is your piece. It reminds me of the long trips that wealthy British citizens used to do in the late 19th, early 20th century.
ReplyDeletethis is lovely. I adore vintage.

She's definitely ready to travel. I would love to travel to Britain, too.
ReplyDeleteWonderful! Such a great vintage piece Marie. I agree with Deann, how do you get that gorgeous creamy looking texture? xx
