The recipe starts with a vision, an idea blooming in my eye. How can I seize that moment in time? How can I capture that elusive idea fluttering around me, like a butterfly or a moth swooping and darting about? If I blink, I might miss the opportunity. Technique: decoupage. I penciled in outlines on the canvass, cut the photos into small pieces, and attached the pieces using a glue & sealer. The concept of telling a story about creating a photo using bits of photos appealed to me very much.
