  4. Thanks dubz! I'm glad you like them. I collage photos on top of the polaroids. It's really fun but I'm not sure what I'll do now that polaroid film is gone.

  5. you could scan a polaroid as a template and place digital images inside the frame, maybe? not the same in person but as jpegs they'd still be cool.

  9. Hey dubz thanks for the idea. never thought of doing another format in the same genre, I am sort of doing that in the paintings but sans frame-i like its possibilities.

    I think the freezing thing sounds good too, I used to refrigerate all the film but freezing sounds way better. thanks PB!

    Hey gianna, thanks! come on over anytime...let's make a plan! good luck with the show this weekend.

    James e! thanks for checking the post!
