When working with a range of colored paper it can get quickly confusing if not put in some sort of order. It must be treated like a paint palette systematically arranged by hue and value.
When I first started working with paper collages I randomly used colors as I found them but as time went by, I began grouping colors, color combinations and patterns into separate containers. This process helps tremendously as the artistic and creative flow is not slowed down by frantically searching for that specific hue and you can visually see clearly the palette you are working with.
Below is the beginning of another P-Town series in process. Putting down the basics and covering the entire picture plane is just as important as the underpainting in the painting process.
Stay tune as I take this piece to the next level.
