New to Me: Altered "Adopted" Ancestor Art
What to do when you find abandoned photos from long long ago?
Turn them into art (in this case, future gift tags for colleagues' use or my Etsy shop)!
Here's a scan of the original (a subdued, respectable looking gentleman):
Which I decided to make black, gray and white since I thought it would work better with the colored paper (the sepia is charming, but didn't blend):
And after some cutting, arranging and gluing, here's what I have (a little cheeky, but hopefully it makes you smile):
How fun would it be to alter images of your family or students for the holidays?

Very cool Michaele! What a great secret Santa. I was just going through a pile of my old photos today.
