And my collage is finished!

Whew, this week has been a busy one already – I’m pretty good at keeping my hands busy. Anyway, I’ve gotten started on another possible portrait/figurative piece for my solo exhibition next year and I’ll post progress pictures later. I’m also really itching to get started on more animal portraits, living near the zoo has its perks – it gives me plenty of opportunities to take pictures for future projects. Anyway, here’s the finished collage that I’ve been working on recently.

I’ve finished working on “the Reader” for now. Here’s what I’ve done so far.

And I’ve finished it!

And it’s finished for the moment. Later on this year or maybe at the beginning of next year, I’ll go back through these possible solo exhibition pieces and tweak them a bit.

I hope everyone has a happy Friday! What will you be up to? I’m about to make my way to New York for the weekend to celebrate my birthday. I’ll take plenty of pictures and maybe I’ll find some inspiration for future portraits.

And it’s finished (for now):

This one is done for now. I’m planning to return to all of these “possible solo exhibition pieces” later on to refine the ones I like best. Some time away from a composition always does some bit of good.

Anyway, there’s more to come soon.

And I hope everyone is doing well!

And I’m done! I’ve started two other 24″x18″ collages – I’ll post the other progress pictures soon.
