Inspired by collage

Using collages as an intermediate part of the creative process I have done an aquatint and a drawing. The first one was created based on the the faces I have been morphing by changing the features likes eyes and lips. This drawing is created with a pen.

The collage for the aquatint was born, because of the photograph from the National Geographic of a woman with the most sad-angry eyes. As you might have noticed (or not) the imagery of the open mouth keeps coming to the artwork I create. I am still looking for the correct interpretation in words for its persistence. In this work the insects are representative of words. Would love to read your interpretations.

Collage

Since I enjoyed collagraphs so much, I thought I should try collages.
And it was more fun than I expected.
If you are into collages and would like to join me
OR if you have magazines to get rid of (humans and animals)- do let me know :)

Exploring Collagrphs

Photogprapher collagraph

Well, I am officially addicted to the collagraphs! My guess, it is the spontaneity of creating them and the painterly quality is what I find so appealing to me.
Here are the images of the new ones.

Blues collagraph

Collagraphs

This is a new medium for me. The plate is created with cardboard and collage of paper, glue, acrylic materials, cutouts and such. After the plate is sealed the ink is smeared and then taken off with tarlatan. There is always an element of surprise as to how the image will print and it is nearly impossible (at least for me) to create an identical print. :)
