Illustrated Stories - Chevron In Blue
Hi There. How are you?
I'm back this week to showcase and sell another original work from my collection. This one comes from my Chevron series. Back in 2012 I couldn't get enough of the bold and graphic chevron motif.

Chevron in Blue
This piece measures 10"x10" and was made out of patterned papers that I collected mainly from magazines. During this time, I had a huge hoard of magazines that I would scour over for good bits of color and pattern. This process eventually got too time-consuming, so I switched over to collecting and collaging with scrapbook paper instead.
After adhering all of the collaged pieces onto the blue background, I drew in some faux "stitching" with a white gel pen. I've always loved the way the white pen pops on a dark surface. (Aww, I'm getting a little nostalgic for my white gel pens. I guess it's time to pull one out and draw with it again!)
This minimalist abstract collage would make a bold statement on a white wall, propped up on a mantle or in a grouping on a shelf.
