Catalyst 23 - What I collect/hoard

Catalyst 23
Journaling:
For as long as I can remember, I have been fascinated by the history of things, especially vintage train cases and old photographs. I can’t resist them! I have 6 or 8 train cases, one is my MIL’s, two others are from my grandmothers, and others I have collected at thrift stores and antique shops along the way. I have a lot of photographs from my family, but I also can’t resist a really cool photo in a thrift store. So, I have a whole train case filled with photographs of those people whose relatives let them “go”.

My other train cases hold other vintage ephemera – book pages in different languages, old newspaper, vintage sewing patterns, and collage sheets from these vintage pieces.

Technique highlight:
Drawing on cold press paper in Pigma Micron, watercolor using Sakura Koi watercolors.

    I love the phrase, “photographs of tose people whose relatives let them go.”
