While walking the Portuguese Camino de Santiago last month, we encountered this open door in a stone wall. It was standing open, inviting us to step through onto the rocky shore for a breath-taking view of the Atlantic Ocean. Don't you want to walk through this door, too?!
In addition to the three cut up altered prints of the photo, I've added some handmade paper and some pieces from a vintage newspaper (roughed up with sandpaper), areas of the collage were enhanced with colored pencil and gouache.

The second image is a close-up detail to show the text that appears throughout the stones. The third photo shows what the artwork looks like in 3-D.
