{ captivating curiosities: art by tricia mckellar }

even better bigger

Both vintage and original images of insects, plans, engineering diagrams, and found objects are combined to create these distinctive limited-edition collage prints found in Tricia McKellar's etsy shop. I love the added dimensional effect she's created by using a photo of a linen bed sheet as the foundation of the images in her plans and diagrams series of prints {as seen in both the upper right and lower left images}.
