Sitting Ladies

(additional elements by Cryztal Rain, Mr. Whiskers, Marta van Eck, Rucola, Beth Rimmer, Christina Renee)

I´ve made three pieces with Hidden Vintage Studio´s new kit called "Sittin´ Pretty Ladies". The first one above is a digital piece, the others are cut and paste postcards as all HVS kits come with png as well as jpg files. And these images are really nice to combine with your favourite mixed-media stuff like spray paints and stamps.
It felt like blasphemy to use the third verse of Auden´s beautiful and sad poem "Funeral Blues" for a humourous postcard, but I just couldn´t resist!
