Collages

First I will post the in class work from last week.....
The first one is my self portrait using only drawings from the previous weeks.

This drawing is a mix of lines and circles exercice to create movement. I used one on top of each other to complete themselves and create more of an explosion. I also added black and red ink. The black ink is to create a focus on the center of the page and to tell the viewer where the explosion starts, and the red line are representative of the barriers that I always want to break, impressive barriers, but not solid enough for the upcoming explosion.



This image is "the monkey in the cage"
I thought it represented a monkeyt well because of the colors and texture of the dress and bag.
A cage effect is created by slicing the image in numerous stripes. Because I have only seen monkeys unside cages, or television boxes.
