Hybrid Photowork ~ photo and Drawing combined (my photo)

Some very interesting Vintage Photographs were my choice to extend with drawing

‘This was a practice where the mother, often disguised or hiding, often under a spread, holds her baby tightly for the photographer to insure a sharply focused image.’
