10x10 torn paper collage on wrapped canvas, my demo from yesterday's class. I drew the parrot with black felt tip permanent marker after gessoing the canvas, then began tearing, not cutting, paper from quality magazines and adhering with matte medium. Today I spent 2 more hours getting him done. There's a frog, a paintbrush, a butterfly, bracelets, rooster, red jalapeno pepper, steamer pot, trivets, a green colander, apple, chair, etc., within the square composition. Tomorrow I'll apply varnish medium to seal it and make it shiny.
