My process began with me cutting up different shapes, patterns, faces and symbols from different magazines. I cut out anything that was appealing or interesting to me. After having a supply of cut out images I began pasting them onto a canvas. It was fun trying to make everything come together in a uniform way. Throughout pasting, I placed different meanings onto the images I was creating, it felt as if my subconscious was working through these random images to make a specific meaning for myself, which in turn was therapeutic. It was satisfying pasting everything and using my creativity to make this collage. I would like to come back to it one day and add more acrylic paint around the outside.
