RE: LMAC 65: Harvesting Tobacco and Children in the Fields

The main reason is that you use parts you have painted yourself in your collages, which is why I like your pictures very much. So they have something personal and they are unique and authentic.
Your collages always tell a story, which also gives them a deeper meaning.
This is also the case in this beautiful collage.

By the way, a nice but unfortunately much too short (I'm very, very curious :-)) insight into your interesting early life story. I could read for hours about such details. :-D

* Thumbs up* It's great collage!
And thank you very much for this interesting Edu-Collage lesson.

Good luck!

You're very kind, @quantumg. My little pictures take a long time because I don't know how to draw. But still, memory and feeling guide me and there is a sense of satisfaction that I have expressed something (even if only I understand it) when I'm done. Each tells a piece of a story.

As for my early life: I have the advantage of contrast when looking back. There was a moment when my mother told us we were leaving. Two hours later we left and never went back. So that casts the past in relief to the rest of my life. Perhaps why I spend time trying to recapture the early years in little pictures. Well there you go...I've told you more :)))

It's really nice to know you. I miss Friedazilla.
