Just leaving the lines of her dress works really well... they almost blend in with the lines on the map. I wanna have a go now

I was inspired by the "fadeaway girls" of C. Coles Phillips (an American illustrator in the 1920s).

All homage to Coles Phillips who invented the technique (in illustrations) way back in the early 1900s. I just adapted it to collage.

Yes, but you adapted it well. Homage to the genius, where would art be without them?
