Saturday Sundaes, a mixed media collage set by badjonesrising.

Saturdays are not usually days of art-making. This past one was a different story because I did three pieces of art! I have posted two of the three above. The are inches of carefully placed pieces to appeal to your senses. 

I have a new method I have been working on about setting up my entire composition before gluing/taping. I work and re-work the layout of pieces to make sure I have the angles, lines, colors, and overlapping I want. Overlapping collage pieces is key to a dynamic composition. It may very well be one of the best ways to assure you have something interesting in the end. I tried to keep a simple color scheme, but bright because it has been so cold and gloomy lately. The fog from the beach crawls up along the forest’s edge and makes everything a bit more melancholy in December. Colorful collages cheer me up. More to come, tell me what you think!
