Today, I wanted to play with color paper and collage a drawing from the weekend. I remembered that artist Mickalene Thomas used similar ideas to create paintings. Instead of many paper scraps, she only uses pigments from acrylics and enamels to describe mood or emotion of the figure. Below, I used an old home and garden magazine that I stole from my aunt. She will never know! I tore colors from ads and then used colored pencils and ink over top to keep my previous drawing intact.
And below is my boyrfriend, Jonathon Todd's watercolor. Wanted to throw that in there.
