Mindy Byrd created beautiful collages to honor her deceased and loving friend whom she created the original photographs with

“I worked on this project with a dear friend and brilliant hair and makeup artist, Ashley Robinson, who passed away suddenly and tragically not a long time ago,” starts Texas-based photographer Mindy Byrd. “We shot our model, Rebekah, after a long day on set working on a commercial shoot. We wanted to do something fun and creative for a charity project we were working on, a little side project together.” Mindy’s piece showing not only a beautiful piece of artwork but deep symbolism behind her work. The dignity and truthfulness characterizes Mindy’s collages created in honor of Ashley’s memory. “The gold leaf material is actually a gold emergency blanket I cut up into various shapes,” describes Mindy the process behind the creation of this beautiful piece. “I felt it symbolized comfort and protection. Ashley was like a mother figure to me, so it made sense.”REBEKAH-01s REBEKAH-02s REBEKAH-03s REBEKAH-04s REBEKAH-05s REBEKAH-06s REBEKAH-07s REBEKAH-08s REBEKAH-09s REBEKAH-10s
