The ladies

These ladies are digital, but done in scrapbook style.

Instead of manipulating graphics to create an imaginary scene or image,

I simply arranged them as I would actual paper and embellishments.

I am pleased with the textures.

It is almost as if you could touch them.

That, to me, is a mark of a good page

 when I work in my altered book:

 if the viewer touches it to feel the various textures.

I "tore" the background paper into strips,

 using an image of crumpled brown paper

and photoshop's lasso tool.
