These are three sections of a fantasy collage I have made. The background is a found item of already painted board that I came across in the woodwork rooms. The brightly coloured swirls of what I think is printing ink reminded me of my own work and the backgrounds I had created with oil paints on board with one of my collages from last year.
I found these images mostly in Vogue And Harper’s Bazaar From full blown fashion shoots and from adverts. The original imagery was polished and perfected, I have changed it to be a bit choppy and almost like animation so the images are far from their original context.
I prefer this work in sections rather than as a whole piece and I am considering cutting up the board or reproducing sections of it either as photographs or as images printed onto canvas.
