For work # 1, I am deciding between the cupped hands or the very, very rough sketch at the bottom right hand corner. I will be recreating this, in mosaic (using tissue paper). On the side, I was testing out how the tissue paper looked if I decided to overlap it and which colors stand out and also the effect of overlapping the tissue.

In this picture, I have continued to experiment with tissue paper in my sketchbook. I have made nothing in particular, I am just experimenting with how the colors look and how the white tissue paper is so thin that it is almost transparent and the color underneath is very visible.
This is not connected to work # 1, nor is it a continuation of work # 1, I have done this in my sketchbook , only to experiment. I have done this with one layer of each color, and overlapping the pieces of the tissue paper. When I bought the packet, the peices were already in squares and for this experiment I have simply just glued them down.

For work # 2 I will be creating a work similar to this sketch in my sketchbook. It is of a girl blowing on a dandelion. When the dandelion is a white (like in the picture), it represents intelligence, clarity, purity, cleansing, spirit/soul, space and new beginnings. The girl is trying to forget her past (this is why her eyes are closed) and start a new beginning (the dandelion represents this). I will be cutting paper from magazines (because magazine paper will give a glossy look to the artwork), in various shapes, mostly triangles.
