paper whimsy's re-engineered photographs and art papers


Gale Blare's Paper Whimsy is a painstakingly-cared-for on-line gallery and e-store for some of the most beautifully re-engineered vintage photograph papers available in the marketplace today. Paper Whimsy takes high resolution scans of vintage and collectible photos and makes them available for collage, mixed media, and other art projects. They then digitally rework and enhance the images and offer them in collage sheets for artists' use. What makes Paper Whimsy a cut above the rest is Gale's attention and curatorship of often hauntingly unforgettable images - many of children's faces. Paper Whimsy has a trained eye for beauty, form, and function - visit them soon to see "everything you need to get creative." The site's Galleria, Bric a Brac, and Attic are truly sources of inspiration for blocked artists of any media.
