doodling with collage
collage and mixed media, Vivien Blackburn
There are 2 pieces of marbled paper, selected for the shapes printed. I then used coloured pencils, felt pen and a little biro to match colours and extend the swirls, adapt them and add the rocks and sea - I may adjust it slightly yet,
You can see more collages of mine here.
A friend mentioned that it reminded her of those dress prints of the 1960s! it does have that feel doesn't it?

I want to make some marbled paper myself - I've promised one 'hard work' (for me! because he doesn't work) student that he can do some marbling later in the term IF he works hard in between - I could then do some as well!
I'm going to play around a little with some lino prints this weekend. Using them on printed paper could give unique results and I was given some exotic paper this Christmas...
