Try and Try and Try Again

Attempting to create an Image for my page.
Picture
First attempt at self-portrait- background coming along nicely, face is too pink, eyes a bit wonky, way too much hair is gonna be on that head. Try again.
I Try and I Try and I am Very Hard to Please.
Picture
Second attempt at self-portrait -same photo inspiration, better skin tone- coming along right eye- (left eye to you, the viewer) needed help and then that side of face looks kinda caved in- OKAY - not working out
Picture
Third try- new approach. Still a self-portrait, from an old photo. mmmm.....No. Electric eraser is greying out the black paper, jawline is off. Well phooey!
Picture
Four- well I kinda want to represent Left and Right Brain- that's  SORT of self-portrait right... but yea...no. Don't like this one either. (I DO like the "Whenever O'Clock though)
At this point I am getting really annoyed with myself. Just DO this thing already.
The drawings are not coming out as I wish- so let's go with my love- Collage.
​All right! Let's DO this thing!!!
Picture
That's it. That's the One. My Left and My Right= My WHOLE Brain.
TaDa!!
​Done.

Collages- I Love 'Em

What can I say about my love of collages?
A lot probably but I'll try to keep it simple.
More in future posts perhaps.
I love searching thru my paper ephemera- text and images-
choosing. 
arranging. 
re-arranging. 
commiting. 
​completing.
it's soothing.
it's zen.

The Traveller: colored pencil and collage - vintage photo for inspiration, vintage paper ephemera to finish it up
Limited color palette to keep it soft and muted.
I loved creating this piece. ​
