Collage Favorites



On Tuesdays we feature the talented work of some of our students and friends. You may see a display of creative Photoshop work, their beautiful photographs or an interesting story about an individual’s meaningful contribution to his or her community, country or the world. If you have memories, old or new, you would like to share, send them to me at mxw8110@yahoo.com.
One of the things that continues to be a happy surprise for me is the spirit of creativity that seniors exhibit in my classroom. Betty Malone has been in many classes at the college where I teach, and her work speaks for itself.

She has numerous and varied interests which you will see portrayed in the images below...

whether traveling (a simple subject, enhanced with special effects)...



restoring and collaging old pictures...



creating images of new beginnings...



or working with pictures of beloved grandchildren, both traveling and...

just being themselves...
 
she does such a great job of preserving and enhancing all of those special memories.

Thanks so much Betty for sharing these images with us.
