Surrealist collage

Artist statement: For this project, We had to make a collage out of magazines or whatever we could find, and then we had to make a replica using paint or markers, or colored pencils, the first thing that I did for this project was that I found some really old magazines, and made a small pile of things that I might want to include in my art piece.

I then took a normal piece of printer paper and started to make it, layer by layer, I started with the background and then went from there. Once I was done with the glueing, I went to making it again, but not with paint since I didn't have any, I used markers which smelled really bad. One problem that I came to near the end of my drawing was that the flowers that you can see in the background of the collage were really hard to make with markers, because they bled and made the flowers all weird looking, so I decided to scrap the flowers and just make the space around the objects black.

The materials that I used for this were, a pencil, markers, a couple magazines, a glue stick, and a plate, that I used for a stencil. these are a few of the pictures that I took while making it.
