This is the first practice collage I did in black and white. I stuck some pieces of photocopies over a drawing, then used white and black oil pastel to add tone and contrast. One thing I found was that the white oil pastel did not work properly over the photocopy.
This is the second practice black and white collage I did. I use full photocopies and oil paint. I used too much black which left it with barely anything showing through.
This is another practise I did. I used black and white chalk on top of the photocopies. However, just like the oil pastel, the white did not work well on the photocopies.
This is a try at using oil paint on photocopies. It turned out slightly better than the practice that was done before although, there is still too much black.
This is a try at using oil paint and turpentine on photocopies. It turned out slightly better than the practice that was done without turpentine although, there is still too much black.
