Washington D.C.: The Washington Monument

The other day I created a collage of the Washington Monument – I’m planning to add this to my Etsy shop in the next week or so. It’s my first attempt at doing the DC series, and I know that the more I practice the same subjects, the more I can improve. So here’s my first try.

I’m going to put this one away for a bit. I’m planning to start working on a mini-collage series of scenes of D.C. Hopefully I can get one of those started and completed by next weekend. We shall see how productive I will be.

Blue Barack Obama (no. 2 in a series)

The week wouldn’t be complete without an Obama collage–or so it seems. I’ve been making a lot of these for my Etsy shop. This one won’t appear in my shop until later today or tomorrow (I’ll update this post with the link later).

Man at the Market

I’m momentarily finished with the “Man at the Market” collage. This will be a potential piece for my solo exhibition next year. I’ve figured that I’ll just make as many pieces as possible this year, then go back and tweak them up in a few areas before narrowing down my selections for the exhibition.

Spring is in the Air

And like all of my collages, I get a little tired of working on them at some point. This one is done for the moment–I’ll return to it later, probably in a couple of months (as you can see there are only a few minor adjustments).
