This is one of my favorite tintypes, I love the black lines running thru it, to me it makes it much more interesting.
After I completed this piece I went to stand it up and it fell face down because of the weight of everything I had added to the front. So after much deliberation I came up with the solution of adding this heavy metal piece to the back and voila it balanced it out so that it stands!
I think this piece the girls are in was an old toaster, but I could be wrong. I just loved the shape of it.
I finally found a use for this old rusty coffee can and love the addition of a piece of lace given to me by the wonderful Laura of 52Flea!
I think this is my favorite rusty one. I even found a tintype with rust on it, just perfect for this piece.

I love all your new rusted pieces of art. You are very creative. Cool ! cool! Hugs, Carol Mae
The sense of hope in the top photo is quite powerful. Even with that cinched waist--with hardware yet--and the ghostly floatings in the background, our girl's eyes are sparkling. Lush, and so luscious!
Cheryl... these new pieces are so engaging and interesting. Beautiful hinges, warm, worn patina on the metal, the verses you choose, and the photos and vintage tintype are... each one, perfect! What a wonderful way to move into a New Year! Happiest Wishes to you... Daryle
U are a wonderful artist! Love all of the pieces you pictured! judy
I can look at your art for a very long time and still feel as if I've not looked close enough. It's quietly provocative. I love the passages that you attach, they make you think of deeper meaning.
Hugs,
