Doily scans in Flickr

McCord Works Posted on August 9, 2008 by Leisa McCordDecember 19, 2008

I just uploaded scans of all the doilies I’ve made into a Flickr set. Almost all of these are mounted in shadowboxes, but photography of shadowboxes has lagged behind. The scans are just so stark and beautiful, though.

McCord Works Posted on June 26, 2008 by Leisa McCordNovember 17, 2008

McCord Works Posted on June 23, 2008 by Leisa McCordNovember 17, 2008
