For the love of Paper

This is my newest torn paper collage called …….. for the love of paper. I need to photograph this again. I find this picture just does not do it justice and I plan on entering this for a juried show so nee a better photo.

Poppy Paper Collage

Other than the finishing coat on this collage I think it’s done!!Finding my way with paper collage is definably a process. Without a teacher, who has done this sort of work before it’s an expensive “find my way around” process. I started thinking I could do this with just torn paper however it has morphed into cutting and creating as I go. Which I suppose is what Art is.

Butterfly ……… out of the woods

Here is the finished Butterfly Picture – I guess I need to name it. I want to call it “out of the woods” because of the process that got me to this point. I found that the learning was huge in doing this piece, so that the beginning of the next few will be easier.
THIS PICTURE NOW LIVES AT THE WELLWOOD CENTER IN HAMILTON, ONTARIO.
