Once upon a time, long, long ago, children could go to movies by themselves and enjoy the Saturday matinees for about a nickel each. My sister's favorite cowboy was Gene Autrey. Mine was Roy Rogers, whose loyal steed was Trigger. When I saw this picture of Roy and that today's challenge was an ATC using a man's image, I knew I had to use it. Other entries on this theme can be seen at Theme Thursday.My background is an advertising postcard which I dabbed with gesso. When that dried I sprayed Moon Mists of several colors and then added the collage.
a super ATC, great images!
