On journey from north east England to north west England. Places that evoke memories about meeting people, starting out away from home. “The past is another country”. Busy and left behind places all connected.
Nearly missed second day collage but I had materials planned so was able to put together a dotty collage.

Collage with water colour pencil, charcoal and pencil. An echo in a rectangle. Analysis cross hatching, frontage on creased paper bag.

Examples of media, equipment and paper bag for collage materials.
After tidying my studio I found heaps of paper found or pieces of completed work. Could not throw it away. Decided to make a collage a day. I struggle with keeping to one theme. This project aims to use bits and bobs, fill partially completed sketchbooks and notebooks, and stimulate ideas to do with found materials.
