Original artwork made from a vintage image of the Statue of Liberty, old letters and papers and encaustic wax.  
 
I made a base tile from card and collaged numerous pieces of vintage letters and papers and an old image.  I then added encaustic wax.  This creates a beautifully layered effect with glimpses of the different paper showing through.  The wax gives a really ethereal appearance.
 
The collage is approximately 4 x 4 inches. 
 
This is a really exquisite piece of art, and truly original, all handmade by me in my studio in Somerset, UK. 
 
This is made from vintage materials so it looks old...please expect signs of wear on the materials.
