Half Moon Heart

I found and photographed this heart in Half Moon Bay, California last week and combined it with the weathered wood and peeling paint of a door found in Santa Fe, New Mexico. (I used this same door in a photomontage a couple of weeks ago.) The way the colors come through the metal heart is incredible. Not yet available for sale. ©Carol Leigh

Carol Davis's pin appears now in front of a red and blue painted cabinet. I added more paint and part of an old car to add to the funky look. Not yet available for sale. ©Carol Leigh

Davis Heart in Copper

Davis Heart in Blue

What's appealing to me here is the combination of textured metal and weathered wood. I photographed an old wooden door in Santa Fe, taking numerous shots of various sections, and then combined them to form the background for this pin, given to me in Santa Fe by Carol Davis. I added rivets, some paint, and it was done. Not yet available for sale. ©Carol Leigh For more photomontages, please visit http://www.carolleigh.net Thank you.

Red Blue Five

Corrugated metal from a garage door in Newport, Oregon combines with rivets and peeling paint on metal from a fishing net storage facility and both sit on top of a "5" from a train in Santa Fe, New Mexico. All of that blends in with various scratches, scrapes, scuffs, and splatters. Not yet available for sale. ©Carol Leigh For more photomontages, please scroll down and/or visit http://www.carolleigh.net. Thank you.

Riveting

I'm particularly fond of this one. I love the texture, the way the rivets stand out, and the warm, golden colors. A door in Santa Fe, New Mexico, an "S" from Taos, and a blurry shot of a painting in Newport, Oregon combine with handwriting, scratches, and splats. Not yet available for sale. ©Carol Leigh

Railyard 6

A trip to Santa Fe is exhilarating. Art is everywhere. And when you come home it's swirling around in your head. At all hours of the night. This piece is made of a "6" from a train in The Railyard, a piece of metal found near Taos, and peeling paint on a piece of wood again found at The Railyard. I returned home with thousands of "bits" that will keep me in photomontages for a long time. Whew! Not yet available for sale. ©Carol Leigh

Aquatic Five

Consisting of a "5" from a train in Santa Fe, New Mexico, rivets from a door (also in Santa Fe), rusty metal from a fishing salvage yard in Oregon, and yet another door from Santa Fe, this piece has a definite watery, aquatic look to it. Blendings, blurs, and smudges complete the look. Not yet available for sale. ©Carol Leigh For more photomontages, please visit http://www.carolleigh.net Thank you.
