FIN 215 Unit 2 Project#1

Collagraph

This project was based on the theme of “Atmosphere”

I chose the theme,”Atmosphere” because, to construct my plates I used both smooth and rough textures as well as relief and layering. I incorporated both abstract and representational images to see if the composition would develop an atmospheric quality or if it would appear as strictly abstract.
