One Reaches. . .
Title: “One reaches, another drifts, two soar.”
Double-sided collage: ink, cut paper, paste paper technique.
Collage is an art form that hold endless joy and satisfaction. Without the skills of an illustrator, you can explore emotions.
How the words and the image connect is left to the observer. There is more in the image than meets the eye. The leaves are different kinds of paper, some are cut from books, some from marbled paper.
While the figure reaches up toward the flying butterfly, a sprite on the right upper side hurries out of the image.
This one is a double-sided collage. The words to describe it are on the back of the same piece. How the words and image fit together is up to each person to interpret.
