DRESS

Somerset Studio is a magazine specializing in the innovations of the art of paper and mixed-media. It publishes articles by and about artists and their work.

Double page spread from the magazine

DRESS is an article I wrote about how my artwork, DRESS, was created. I used 19th century photos and parts from an antique camera and the drawings were done with pen and ink and watercolor. It is constructed like a book and measures 4.75" x 6.25" closed.

It's about the dress as a multi-layered affair, not the one piece garment of today. Women couldn't get dressed by themselves and they must have had a terrible time with their corsets.
