Cut-paper collage postcard created for the Kollage Kit theme: "Black & White." This is just my second black-&-white collage, and I must say, it was fun to make! It seems like the composition is easier to figure out when you don't have color to deal with. Background (big propeller, small people) is part of the business end of the Olympic , sister ship to the Titanic . Figures in upper right are Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow. Gentleman standing in water is Alfred Kidd, who based his 93-pound steam-powered model on the Empress of Britain , a Canadian ocean liner sunk by a U-boat in 1940 (photo taken 1953). Tendril thingies from a photograph by Lisa Elmaleh. Words from an ad for Levi's. By the way, a few months ago I created a Flickr gallery of (other people's) black-&-white collages .
