Omaha Sentinel

Fort Sanders, 1868
Slanders. Salamanders. Sally meanders.
Sanders, sanders, fort sanders, fort sanders.

Omaha Sentinel
This image resulted from tampering with an A.J. Russel photograph from a book that is called Westward to Promontory. There are a lot of great photographs within this book so I decided to do a rare thing which is to cite the source, though usually it's only cuts of advertisements as edited into photographs aside
A portrait was taken of General Grant at Fort Sanders
photo:A.J. Russel

A woman's face was enlarged enough to stir up enough grain to heighten texture after being patterned.
The moth is a Riley Saintclaire Daniels who flew all the way from Greensburrough, Cincinnati  to here to pose, not poise, for  the photograph on the 9th month of 2011.


Omaha Excursion takes the same approach of patterning an old photo and laying an edit over the top. In this case I found an image of a story character I created that matched up well to the protruding figure creating the outer center square.
