Collage


I'm taking a narrative collage class this semester.  I don't know how I feel about it yet... it was definitely fun, but I feel so guilty cutting up beautiful books! Luckily, we do not have to sacrifice our own bound beauties (how poetic..).  The teacher goes to this big free book thing (that's what it's actually called... Baltimore Book Thing) every Saturday and brings back loads for us to use.  Some of them are so old!  I admit... I ripped out a page or 2 (or 3, plus a book..) to keep and hang on my wall.  I felt bad leaving them to be cut up.  I can't do this every class, or I will have a wallpaper of 1960's ads.  Actually, that sounds nice...

Mine turned out better than I expected, I've never really collaged before.  I think it's very King Kong meets Mick Jagger in drag (I don't think it really is but my teacher was convinced) meets Christina's World-esque.  Jagger Kong World.
