Paper Collage - "Cocoon" Cut up the bossy images

Cocoon

Our artist group "exchanged" images, each one of us printed 5 copies of a page of selected images to swap with everyone else in the group, so we all ended up the same exact collection of images to start with.

The workroom was silent (except a little muttering) for an hour!  We were all concentrating, but what to do with that BIG lobster!  I cut him up into different shapes, so he became part of a tree and a vertical element - Now the  composition wasn't about the lobster!  Plus - the butterfly wings became a framing element for the gal - almost like bushes behind her.  It's all about play and seeing things differently.
