I used the same old, old newspaper image for this collage. The image itself was not really usable, not very sharp and a little blurry, but I LOVED the posture and the sweep of the dress, so I scanned the picture in and used the Apply Screen command in Corel Painter to reduce the photo to a sketch-quality that still captured what I love about the photo. This basic command is found in most photo-editing programs.
Below the collages is an example of using the Apply Screen effect on an old newspaper photo. Following that is a closeup of each collage.

Closeups of Sisters Collages: I used a paler version for the more "traditional sister (as I imagined her) shown with husband and love letter text.

I used a much more saturated version of the same image for the other sister who I imagine was a social butterfly with lots of adventures.... This set of collages was inspired by my experience with sisters and how different they can be from one another.
