Lyle

I've been missing my brother this holiday season, so I decided to work on the image of him in his kilt.  First I transferred (process only worked partially) a photo of him over a muddy monotype, then pasted on some clippings of a cat, his face and him as a baby at La Jolla Shores.  Didn't like this, so cropped it.  The faint
transfer of his face is spooky. 
Then I photo-edited some other images, printed them, chopped them up and made a collage of the black cat, baby Lyle and the kilt. I colored the image of him at the beach and when I scanned it to post here, it looks like he has red streaks on his body. I like the collage better in black and white. I'll have to stare at these for awhile to see what, if anything, to do next.  Right now the lower left hand side isn't working for me.
If you click on the images, they will enlarge.

 I also juxtaposed the baby image over the kilt image with some photo manipulation and came up with this odd result.  I think Lyle would be amused.
