Found Keys

This collage is called Found Keys.  Like the others- this has a Gelli print background.  I took a great online class from Carla Sonheim a couple of months ago using the Gelli plate.  http://www.carlasonheim.com/intro-to-gelli-plate-printmaking/  That class was very good and I learned so much.  In undergrad I was a printmaking major so it was like coming home in a way.
The title for this was suggested by a dear friend.  This collage is especially personal and deep with meaning for me.  This is one of my favorites from this ongoing series.

    I really love the combination of the background with the collage. And I agree with John...the composition of the face in the key hole and the key about to enter is seriously amazing.
