Illustration Friday: Sweater

"Sweater"
Collage Remix from 1940s - 1960s vintage magazines

When I think of a sweater, I think of lamb's wool. This collage is an interpretation of the sweater in a not-so-direct way. I added the hearts for Valentine's Day.

  1. Before I read your explanation, I thought your picture showed a sheep wearing a sweater made of human skin (reverse of humans wearing wool sweaters). I guess I read too much into it. ha ha :p

  3. Hi Debbie,

    I know, IF's topics of reverse and sweaters is getting really confusing ... and challenging, to say the least! But I guess I did kind of reverse the sweater thing (subconsciously) :-)

  5. To brrr or not to baaa? That is the question! Very creative and abstract interpretation Kerry!
    (I didn't even do an IF this week)

    Your kitties are so cute. I have a Big Boy (Mack) and a Maggie (Mable) look just like them!

  6. Very fun. I like the sense of depth suggested by the velvet and the plane. I also like that green. I think that that was the green that I was looking after in my image.
