My primary inspiration for this piece was paper doll sheets. I liked the idea of making this collage look as if it was a tear sheet for a paper doll. I chose to sketch costumes that I found inspiration from throughout every decade and then compiled my favorites of the sketches into the actual collage. The final size of the piece is 52" by 12" and is in the process of being printed on silk charmeuse fabric
