Collage artist: Martin O'Neill

I really enjoy Martin's work and the different techniques he used to make the collages. You can see areas in the image where he used paint and silkscreen. I've always been infatuated with images from the 50s up to the 70s as well, so his work is right up my ally.

Dash Snow

My collage Artist is Dash Snow. He is not only a Collagist but he is also a photographer. His work is mostly rated R, which caught my attention. Not a lot of artists go to that place. His bravery caught my attention. And the way he does his collages is just so my style! Craziness!!!

Ray Johnson

Raymond Edward 'Ray' Johnson, was known as a collagist
and a correspondence artist. He was a figure in the early Pop art. He died driving his car off a bridge in Sag Harbor, Long Island.  His take on collage art, was probably the best one. How he gets a person then layers ink or other pictures on it is how I've done some of my work. So for this project I"ll be basing it off of him.

COLLAGE ARTIST- Marek Haiduk

Marek Haiduk is a Germain designer. His collages spoke to me mostly because they are EXACTLY what I would try to create if I was more advanced with collages/photoshop. Marek uses bright and lively colors in his imagery while balancing the image with black and white pieces as well. It seems as though most (if not all) of his images also include at least one human subject. Marek's balance of shapes, color, and subject matter makes for a vibrant and modern piece of art. I would definitely be interested in buying some of his work! Love the floral designs as well!

Jazz Green- Collage Artist

I have chosen to model the first print project in the style of Jazz Green. He does a variety of artworks, from paintings, to photographs, to collages. He uses various textures, especially in his collages, which is the aspect of his work that I will attempt to incorporate into this project.

Collage Artist- David Ball

           I have chosen to create my collage in the style of David Ball, a surrealist that works in collage/mixed media. I was really taken by the interesting creatures and landscapes that David creates with different imagery so seamlessly. I also am excited for the vast directions I can take the content of this piece by using the surreal styling to create a narrative possibly not even related to the image but by the components make up themselves.
