Combing Makes the Difference

The image of this woman leaning forward was so intriguing to me.
I love her pose, it suggests such confidence. I think the red in her dress communicates a kind of assurance.
I loved the contrast between the red in her dress and the background. I decided to use the same color for the background of the collage. I added the textured paper and red paper for balance.
The text is more about a block of color and abstraction than about the words.

The found paper, "Combing" Makes the difference provides the meaning and the irony to this collage.
There is no amount of combing that can provide the kind a self image this woman exudes.
