This is one of the first collage pieces I did since I started my altered art adventure. I found a great old stash of bird flashcards that are perfect for my 6x6 canvas. I added a sun with some textured metallic paper an Altered Start friend had sent me. The sun reminds me of the ones I used to draw as a child---in the corner with rays coming out like petals of a flower. I added a quote about nature from William Shakespeare "One touch of nature makes the whole world kin". I love putting quotes in my work. The collage is on a base of vintage-look paper and the sides of the canvas are painted to contrast nicely with the artwork. This was the first "real" sale I got from my etsy store.
