a couple of years ago i was challenged to make a collage that introduced and illustrated a newly invented word so that others could understand it. i invented the word "paism" - the extreme kick you get only from a really beautiful paisley pattern. i made two collages on this word but unfortunately, both of them are lost. so while i was on my latest g c break, i spent some of the very little playtime i gave myself making a new "paism" collage. and here it is!
additional info: the woman is a model picture stolen from an indopak fashion site. i extracted her from background, fake painted her and tweaked her in various ways. the font is "bobbi the hippie". the paisleys were all made using my "bohemian blob paisley" technique.
