AD inspired collages

Do you me believe me if I tell you
I had a fabulous week end, staying at home?
Reading Garcia Lorca's La Casa de Bernada Alba
for the first time in Spanish (I used to read his work in French)
and leafing through AD magazine again
which gave me the inspiration
to make sunny summer collages
using a minimum number of colors and space


inspired from a collage by Yves Saint-Laurent

inspired from movie Le Mépris (Contempt)
by French new wave director Jean-Luc Godard
one of my favorite movies

this one is for girly fun

it says
I'm not just a nice dress
I also want to share your best moments


and I dedicate it to all the lovely ladies
like Karina from El Beso who are soon going
on a holiday and struggle with their packing !

As for me, one thing is sure
never go on a holiday without a nice dress
to make the good time even better

....off to the frame maker and make more collages....
I love it !

see you wednesday with more hopefully..

Lalita, que talentosa eres Mujer! Simply beautiful, can't wait to see more. Lala, de casualidad haces algunos que sean de tema asiatico?

These are wonderful! Do you use and Xacto knife? Somehow I can't get past using the scissors but the lattice work is a bit too challenging for scissors. I am looking forward to seeing the next round of creations.

The weekend at home sounds wonderful. Sometimes after a hectic week - There's No Place Like Home!

These are great!!!! So lovely to meet you :)
They are all very good, but the dress is my favorite. I LOVE the colors you selected, and that lantern hanging from the tree make the whole collage extra special! You have a fantastic eye for shape and color and how to put them together.

Beautiful work, Lala. And I think that dress is indeed for "best moments"! :-) I believe it's possible to have the best time just hanging out at home. Many wonderful days I've spent that way, curled up with a book, sipping iced tea...

Thank you for stopping by my blog. Yes, the book Silk I referred to is the one by Alessandro Baricco. You are the first person I have ever connected with who has read it.
