Sorry, couldn’t resist the Beatles reference 🙂

Here’s another small canvas collage (3 3/4″ x 2 3/4″) I just finished, it’s another caged bird theme. Just can’t seem to get away from that theme lately, I think this one is a little sad and haunting. The background is vintage music paper and I stamped the words “Private Collection” down one side, adhered it to the canvas and inked up the edges, then wrapped black grosgrain ribbon around the canvas to hide the staples. I added the words “I live in a cage” cut from a vintage book and laid over the transparency with the cage. I then added the red winged black bird image and the tag tied with hemp string on top of the transparency.
