The Explorer

I think I mentioned in yesterday’s log, I’m inspired lately to see what I can do with collage. I’m exploring two methods and how to combine them: building forms with paper shapes AND finding new forms in printed images.

Meanwhile, collage does it again. While I’m busy playing with paper scraps, my intuition finds a way to express the larger story of me.

Notes:

1) painted background is so much better! Actually adds shapes to the composition as well as color. Yesterday it looked like this:

2) the boat was actually an A-frame house in the magazine I cut up.

3) interesting that I really don’t like boats—but they keep appearing in my work.
