"What Was" Wednesday


A few more pages from old sketch/collage books. These were part of the experiment I did a few summers ago whereby I did a collage each day. Most of my work, I must say, has no predetermined idea; it's all random, whatever comes out is what it is and so always a surprise for me.

The middle collage is an alphabet. Some of the letters are obscure. The "n" is missing and only a few people will know the "z", but have some fun with it if you want.

The last one is ambiguous, it's what comes from combining odd but related things: Michelangelo and  Caravaggio. But I have to admit I rather like the two angels peeking down from above (in the upper left corner).

  1. Love your collage pages. And I'm still trying to figure out the 'z'.
