Collage

My First Collage

 I'm taking a collage class.  I started out feeling somewhat intimidated.

I still feel intimidated.  But I do it anyway because I love it.

The first assignment was letters.  I really had no idea how to be abstract and use letters.  NO WORDS??? 

I got home and began using colors.  And paint.

And I kept thinking of my nieces who would really dig this.  No matter what age you are, anyone can do this!

I have three nieces in Miami. 

 I'm not very good at abstraction.  I like faces.

This was an old face I had drawn while on a plane.  Drawing and coloring helps me not be so anxious. 

But it was plain, and unfinished.

Now it became the base of a new piece.

Not sure of her name yet, but I like her.  Alot.

This is another old drawing.  Repurposed.

This last one is totally in process....not sure where she's going.... but I think the journey will be sweet.

I'm still intimidated.  But I'm having fun.
