Varieties of Merit

I created this collage for the 8th Annual International Collage Show. I was not able to part with it. So, I still have it. I think that it may be one that I keep for always.

I love the young woman's stance. It screams of self assurance. The length of her skirt and the fish net stockings just add to you knowing that she is just in control and loving it. She might even be using it. The vintage car in the background seals the deal. She is no fading violet.

The constructed cross provides a contrast both in content and composition.
