Fibers Junior Year

I like the way peacocks look. I think their feathers are so unique and i love the color of them. But other than that, i hate birds.
Again with the peacocks.  I like the contrast between the warm background and the cool peacock.
This is one of my favorite collages. It is random, like me.  Here i found a peacock feather to use and i have been in love with peacocks ever since.
I have never spent so much time on a piece of art in my life! this piece is based off of the song "Across the Universe" by the Beatles. Each section represents different lyrics of the song. the glass eyes, i love. i learned a technique called "tape transfer" where you put clear tape over a picture from a magazine, rub it on tightly, then run the tape under hot water.  the paper comes off, but the ink stays on.  I used this technique to put a whole bunch of eyes onto the broken glass.
I love indians. I used to pretend i was an Indian whenever i played in the creek behind my backyard.  I even made several plates and eating utensils out of the "clay" i found.
