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!!

So much lovely artwork for me to catch up on Steph! You must create almost every day! I always feel best when I can do that!
I also enjoy using what is at hand (and with my messy workspace I have quite a bit within easy reach LOL)
