This one-of-a-kind, handmade collage is part of my FEBRUALLAGE 2022 collection—a set of works created for an international challenge using a daily prompt to create a new collage each day in February. This collage was prompted by the word: UPSIDE-DOWN

 

This whimsical collage centers on a black and white photograph from a mid-century era LIFE magazine. Anchored by many images snipped from food ads of the same era, and layered over grocery receipts, this collage is a fitting addition to any foodie’s kitchen. Clean Up on Aisle Five is surrounded by a simple wood frame (1 1/2 in depth) and fitted with a wire for easy hanging.

 

Initialed on the front & signed in signature silver on the back.

 

All collages are made from found and recycled materials—they carry the story of their past (and some materials are very old)! This can mean discoloration, cracks, fading or other imperfections. It’s all part of the process. To maintain the integrity of your art, keep out of direct, sustained sunlight.
