Just the collage without additions, subtractions, or journaling.
This is the inside cover of the book I bound in a workshop with Kelly Kilmer on Saturday. It's scanned. When I decide how I'm going to finish it, I'll snap a pic of the outside of the book. It's a wonderful, unusually constructed book, and I know I'll be binding more of them.
This collage has only 4 separate pieces of paper, including the two focal images. The rest is a collage of tape, and a snip of open-weave twine.
It's far from finished, but I plan to scan each page as they get to this point and print copies. I'll bind the copies in paper back journals and see how many variations I can come up with for the same page. Just for fun, and to keep me on my toes.
That little girl looks a lot like pictures of me when I was that age, right down to the haircut. But my mother didn't look at all like that lady, and she wasn't a French accordian player.
Love this. It was so good to see you, Barbara. :)

Looks great. Total flow between colors, layout and subjects. The eyes can go over it and make a full circle, good to keep the attention focused. What is the name of the class you mentioned from Kelly that does focus on layouts?
I tried to discover the four different papers. Well done!
