This week was all about letting the creativity flow. My painting teacher assigned us to do a collage painting. I tried to focus on what I love in order to be inspired. My first passion is photography so I figured I'd start there.
I painted a canvas black so I'd be able to create a slight texture with the paint. Something I wouldn't be able to get with a regular black canvas. I cut the black canvas the way I wanted. I then took modeling paste and pasted it to my working canvas. I placed it in a way to resemble a camera. I used more modeling paste to form a circle. Resembling the lens. I let that dry and then built up the lens with more modeling paste, to get it the way I wanted it. In the center of the lens I used acrylic paint, as well as a charcoal drawing and some newspaper clippings.
The end result was a little different from my original idea, but that's the best part of art. You can keep building on it until it fits your vision. I don't think this is the finished product yet but I'll keep you posted. Thanks for reading!
Happy Wednesday,
