Time for another great challenge at Rhedd's Creative Spirit this month. The theme is as always Altered Art/ Mixed Media. I found this old picture of my dad (the tall handsome young man on the right) with his brother and sister. I think it was taken about 1940. I decided to make an altered clipboard using the picture.
I used a collection of different findings, paints, inks stamps etc for my collage. It was a lot of fun building the project.
Some of the products I used were acrylic paints, an old tape measure, drywall tape, stamps , metal keys and lock, metal rose. stencil by Andy Skinner, assortment of papers, crackle paint, gears and clogs.
