Ciara Phelan

As i have mentioned the main think i want to concentrate on in my 3rd year is developing my collage techniques and looking and different ways i can do this whilst creating my own style. I posted earlier an illustrator working over the top of a photograph with pattern work, another illustration and collage method i want to explore is the use of existing shapes patterns and photographs put together to make my own illustrations. Ciara uses vintage images and cuttings out of paper to create her illustrations. This is something i have worked with in the past but never on such a large scale. Until i saw Ciaras work i never quite realised i could do it on such a large scale and fully with existing work. I really like that she has mixed this with her own cut outs indiviuallising the illustration and making it her own. I definitely no now i want to explore all areas of collage and not just stick to what i know.
