"Kid Gloves"

 For my latest collage I thought I would do another post showing the stages from concept to completion. I found two figures where the sizing and direction of focus seemed to pull them together so I decided to oblige.
The background was suggested by the positions they would need to occupy to be proportional and the piece built itself up from there.
