Embellishment challenge

For my embellish challenge I wanted to merge concepts from my collage work and embroidery. Using my own prints, I carefully attached them to both the collars and cuffs of my shirt. I also chose to further decorate with stitch and other add ons such as buttons. I am happy with how my work turned out, I do however wish I had more time to further my design.   

Paper collages

Using my original firsthand prints and various other paper I created the above work. This is my favourite of my collage work. It resonates the best with my personal art style, the colour scheme I chose, and the words my project is based around.
A quick collage (top), and quick oil pastel drawing (bottom), in my colours of choice.
Further collage work that utilises my colour in different shades. Although I do like this work, it solidified my desire to work with rich, dark colours for this project.
A larger paper collage that incorporates plastic scraps. This allowed for further incorporation one of my two keywords – transparent.
