No Trespassing, mixed media collage sketch, 2012 by Sarah Atlee
Like the Millennium Quilt series, I made this drawing while my mother was recovering from surgery. I thought it would be interesting to create a geometric composition based on a (blurry) photograph. Abstraction through pixellation, although the original photograph is the digital media, whereas the drawing below is analog.
Fijian, jiving, and scheme are cool words.

Sketchbook 2013: Grids
Three selections on the Grid theme from my 2013 sketchbook.
Sketchbook cover, mixed media and found paper collage
Polka Dot Grid, ink on paper
Photo collage, one-inch photo cutouts and found objects
This last one is a product of a photo reference purge in my Oklahoma City studio. I chose my favorite photos, then chose my favorite square inch from each of those.
Expect more sketchbook selections here on the Blog, and later, up in the Images section of the site.
Puzzle Collages
Found on Flickr: Picazzle's intricate jigsaw puzzle collages. They're retro! They're postmodern! They make my head hurt, in that good way.
Picazzle also links to jigsaw puzzle art by others on Flickr.
