BRIDGE OF SIGHS
by Carolyn Congrove
Take your art beyond the image. Make the frame a piece of art in itself, as Carolyn Congrove explains in her article “Touch of Romance.” For “Bridge of Sighs,” Carolyn took cues from the beauty of Venice, where she shot the photograph, and incorporated the sense romance onto her frame. For details on how Carolyn created her frame, please see her article, “Touch of Romance,” on page 29.
