collage study...

I've been doing much paper and scissors collage lately

simply because I wanted continuity in my creative process 

and 

I am learning so much

from it all

and

once I start pasting down my collage materials...

very soon I find myself engaging in layers of shapes, colors, looking for dark and light shades etc....

and

often times when there's an urge to use a particular image or collage material

I said to myself..."just do it" as it's pure experimentation in every way...

"song of joy"- collaged ephemera

6"x6" chipboard

I critique my own work thereafter and just like this piece, I certainly can see

some changes I would make

but I love this anyway...... :))

the way it is

it reminds me of the learning process I've so enjoyed..

truly refreshing.

Have an artful weekend!!
