rollage: haeckel


From yours and my favorite: Ernst Haeckel--Art Forms in Nature and Art Forms in the Ocean.

Circular Rollage

Earlier in the year I was experimenting with weaving and cut-out patterns (apparently doing rollage although I had no idea what it was called).  I tried some checkerboards, some strips and then a circle.  My circular bride is a little hard to see, but she's in there...

The Bride

When I was a young girl


This is my very first try of rollage-



Rollage .. first trial


Very much fun to play with this new technique ... this one feels like creating vintage tiles.

THEME: ROLLAGE

Thanks for the themes last month, Michael. November is my turn...

I thought it might be interesting to try a technique ?!
Rollage - how it works:
two or more similar images / cut in strips in the same size / mixed, moved, twisted, interchanged, omitted...
Have fun!
