"Her Beauty, Her Weapon" by Kristen Peterson

This is a mixed media collage on a 5.5inch by 5.5 inch chunky wood block. I used these great vintage NRA target practice sheets for the images in the foreground. The woman is someone I found in an Italian Vogue a long time ago.

The background is composed of over 4 layers of image transferring and acrylic washes. Sometimes its the back ground that gives me the most difficult problems......But when I added the ascending circles, it was like magic.
