Praying to the Grape Gods

Praying to the Grape Gods
Praying to the Grape Gods resides in a RR journal going on an eleven month journey beginning the first mailing day in January.  In this piece I used material that Tim gave me for Christmas.  He found some images from the 1920s that an artist George Barbier created as posters.  My nimble fingers used pieces of three posters to create a new piece.  The moon I found in a recent magazine as well as part of the landscape material.  I added teabags, napkins, and, of course, my favorite tissue crows.  Done!
