Montage Mirage Photo Tapestries

About the Book

This book, through charming examples of the author’s personal collection of full-color individual and family photo tapestries, accompanied by moving text and easy-to-follow instructions, demonstrates how readers can convert their cherished photographs into meaningful montages and collages that celebrate their most heartwarming moments, experiences and passages.

Layering a number of significant photos into a photo tapestry offers the opportunity to experience emotions evoked by the grouping. You are invited to share the joy of the activity or special event along with the subject(s) when you view their differing facial expressions, postures and collaborations in one all-conclusive piece. Photo tapestries tell dynamic visual stories. An entire mood comes across through the thoughtful composite of images and embellishments. This approach gives a more complete representation of whom or what is being portrayed as it animates personality and character aspects that single photos miss.

Montage Mirage is completely original and creates one-of-a-kind pieces. The process is easy, fun and stimulates creativity. Follow one of the basic layouts - substituting your own photos - and it will be customized for you. Always color copy your precious photos onto photo paper first, then work with the copies so you have nothing to lose. You now have the ability to chronicle your own family’s events. Inspiration permeates this book and empowers you with the knowledge and tools needed to create your own personalized photo tapestries.

Montage Mirage Photo Tapestries invents a whole new medium ideally suited to creating portrait keepsakes which can be handed down through the generations.
