Collage - from the French: coller, to glue)


Homework - this was so much fun, I decided to work on a theme (Medical), considering the 20 years of working in the medical field I thought it quite appropriate. Every piece of paper glued is either a piece of writing, a medical symbol a picture of a muscle, x-rays or medical material of one sort or another. I started out putting the coinciding body part where they belong on the body, after a while this proved a little difficult to get the tone correct - so they end up random. I finished the piece with some Gesso over the top, felt it needed something to bring the whole picture together.

I thought this piece was really successful and quietly I am pretty proud of it.
