Full-view to get a good look at this one. :D

Diamonds are a girl's best friend. :D Especially Tiffany's... (Many of the large rocks in this are from their ads.) As with the gemstones piece, this required hours of hand-cutting pictures of diamonds from fashion magazines for hours. I think that this flows much better than the gemstones piece, since it's all one colour. I think my work paid off. :D

Magazine cutouts on 8x10 canvas board. Affixed with gluesticks. :giggle:

I would love comments on this. :D

Very cool, you must have a lot of patience. Its strange to see such a huge mass of diamonds all in one place since I'm used to seeing them only one at a time on people's fingers, around their necks, on earings etc. The fact that you cut these all out from ads makes me think of the excessiveness of diamond advertising, and how beauty magazines use repetition of images to influence us to buy things that though pretty, aren't really necessary.

I think I have far too much patience. :D

Diamonds are lovely, but when you sit there flipping through a fashion magazine just trying to look for them, it is amazing how many ads there are. A little diamond here and there really does add up.

Aww... thanks!! :aww: I'm such a collaging whore. :XD: I had somewhere around... oh, probably 100 magazines lying around, but I had to throw them away. And I keep a big box full of really random pieces of paper. Yup... love the collages. :D

:lmao: Never had anybody ask me that, but I do get some very questionable glances from all of my magazines and boxes of collaging material. :D
