When I use boards for my mixed media collages, I typically cover the board with a dark blue coat of paint before I begin. The Bookcase Collage Series is no exception. That said, I was curious to see the results if I kept the natural wood as a background.
It was not my intention, but the whole time I was working on this piece I kept seeing San Francisco’s Main Library in my head. It’s all the natural wood. Not my original plan, but the results are both inspired by an homage to one of my favorite places.
