Botticelli’s would be SO pleased! Collage work at it’s best. Venus rising from the waters is so appropriate for this theme.
The text you place in the background is also interesting and symbolic. Botticelli’s Venus was quite controversial within the society and art world of his time.

Very interesting collage. Your layout of the pages into the background create so much depth.
The colors are wonderful. Nice.

Ah Lisa. Romantic, delicate and full bodied! The words behind lend a dialog that is carried on between Venus and the Viewer! Congrats on another successful work.

I really like this, too, and was admiring your other work you have in your etsy shop.
