Project Progress

My theme for the Digital Collage project is Childhood Nostalgia.
Right now I'm split with two different storylines.

One is based on the painting 'Song of the Lark." It shows a girl in a rural setting. Since she had to work in the fields often, she didn't have time for play. I would like to put the song "I Have Had Singing" to the paintings that line the wall along with 'The Song of the Lark." All of them depict rural scenes.

The second part has to do with seagulls and waves and seascapes, like in "Two Sisters", siblings at a beach, along with "The Child's Bath," Summer memories and domestic scenes are very nostalgic.

I've collected beach sounds, including waves and seagulls, as well as ambient farm sounds. Ive collected lark songs as well.

I have to figure out how to combine these two stories. Meredith has suggested that perhaps the girl in the field is recalling her past childhood.

The theme of my digital collage is mostly taking comfort in the past after all . . .
