#Caturday (Plus 1) Silhouette 14: Size Matters!

This #Caturday Saturday, my silhouette of our little Bill is on top of a cyanotype print that someone threw away, I fished it out of the paper bin! I think she looks lovely silhouetted against the ostrich feather. The image of Bill is cut out of some discarded paper too. I painted it black.
