This mixed media collage was recently accepted into the 22nd annual International Juried Exhibition of Experimental Artists (ISEA) at the Big Arts Center in Sanibel Island, FL. This exhibition will be on display from October 18th until November 27th, 2013. www.iseaartexhibit.org
Designing dynamic compositions happens by creating contrasts. Visual intrigue is more probable when you balance contrasting qualities, like contrasting areas of many shapes, with areas of few; colorful areas with areas of neutrals; and opaque areas with those that are translucent or transparent. I get a kick out of using yellowed pages from an old copy of War and Peace I picked up from a "free box" on a street in Taos, NM. There isn't more of a contrast than that of WAR and PEACE!
