Collage Art ~

Creative | Inspiration

I recently finished this collage for my Mother-in-Law's hubby. He is a musician and she commissioned (sounds official don't you think?) me to create a piece of art to celebrate his musical career.

This was a super fun project -
Just seeing all of his memorabilia was great! 

Laying out all of the pieces definitely took a few days - and a few sets of eyes!

She loved it, he loved it (there were even a few tears)...everyone was happy!


Have a rockin' weekend!
