Very Vintage



I thought you'd enjoy seeing these old pictures. I love vintage pictures and using them in my art work. The top is my great grandfather, O.B. Cole who was in the 1889 Oklahoma Land Run. Below that is his daughter, my grandmother, Izetta Cole Walther-Barg. I brought these photos back from my visit with family so I'll have to see how I can use them to do something crafty.

Love the vintage pix! People always look so thoughtful and serious in them. My great grandmother was a photographer and I would love to figure out how to use her work in my art.
