Treasures to Include

While in St. Francisville, I visited a couple

of antique stores. I am always on the lookout

for paper items to scan and include in some

collages. Above are some vintage postcards,

and a Cafe Dumonde ad that I scanned and

printed on that 12 x 12 sheet. I will use them in

some New Orleans pieces.




Because the city was the home of John James

Audubon for awhile, I looked for some bird

images as well. I bought the Audubon Bird

Guide book at a great little shop, and these are

a couple of the bird plates. I have already painted

the canvases, and I will start working on these

tonight.
