I found it harder to create a collage with a free topic, it happens to me when I have too many options sometimes I don’t know what to choose. As earth day was last Saturday I have been thinking about all the damage we do to the planet and the ones that live in it.

I wanted to the collage about the animal kingdom and all its beauty. It ended up being a bit childish but I don’t think it was by coincidence. I did use to draw and think about animals a lot more when I was a child.

I started by adding my favorite animals to a blank canvas.

From there I was trying to choose other animals that matched the topic and the overall symmetry and color pallet.

As the background was white I then create a “grass and ski” type of background and kept adding elements.
