The last couple of years have been filled with revisiting family photos, mementos, and stories while sifting through the many objects I’ve collected over the years. This new series called '“Nostalgia” is a compilation of images I created using collage, paint, and digital media. A family portrait of my Grandmother Alice and Great Aunt Isabel evokes an era long ago when women weren’t afraid to be both beautiful and strong. Other portraits of objects fill my canvases such as my gradnmother’s shoes; cowboy boots and fancy heels from Neiman Marcus, along with a portrait of my grandfather’s vest given to him by the Shoshone Indians. These objects, along with other relics began to weave a visual story rich in color, texture, and lore. - Brook Rosser
