My Place

I've just completed a collage (the first I've ever done) for my Creative Sketchbook course. We were asked to do a picture that gives a sense of where we live and I decided to use several techniques that are demonstrated during the course. I've used photocopies of parts of the building, both the formal aspect of the entrance, and contrasted it with our personal space on the balcony with flowers. The leaves are to soften the effect but also to reflect my walks in Hyde Park.
This was a fun, mixed media approach, using acrylics, water colour paints and pencils, photocopies and sketching. I'm looking forward to trying this again.
