An Owl Begins Her Time Travel Journey

The last 2 months had been great fun and excitement as I searched local and online for supplies that I would need for my new collection of mixed media assemblage artworks. Ophelia the Owl also a historian apprentice is preparing her journey to France in the 19th century. Here's an initial sketch of how the 1st piece, "The Gears That Set History In Motion" may look like:






Sketchy Thoughts From My Journal


Something was definitely gearing up within Ophelia to go back to historical times. She could hardly wait to be a first eye witness to the arts and cultural happenings of that era, she had to experience it for herself! She has come up with a  list of people whom she wants to meet and places she wants to visit, she's still consolidating her list at this juncture, trying her very best to make the most out of this trip.

Here are the pics of what I had hunted and gathered for this purpose (just part of it):


Vintage Watch Faces


Vintage Small Clock And Watch Parts


Vintage Clock And Watch Gears



Vintage Keys And Hardwares


Vintage Bisque Doll Parts


Vintage Decorative Tourist Souvenir Piece


Will be working on the 1st piece on canvas this week, finished work will be updated here :D
