Astray
For this collage, I used my moccasins and the fur from one of my ferrets as my two original images. I used the clone stamp to create the fur sections, which I used as "grass" in the picture. I decided to make everything transparent to some degree, excluding the map in the background, and I edited the saturation and color of most of the images to portray the nostalgic, somber mood I was aiming for. I used two wampum belts in place of a sky and used spears to create the border in the upper corners.
A lot of my inspiration for this project came from William Steiger, who uses quite a bit of maps in his work, and who also experimented with the same color scheme, such as in this water tower collage of his. Before creating his collages, he takes a photo of the subject matter he uses in his collages, sometimes using maps of the locations of the subjects as the background of the collages.

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.

The Grass is Always Greener on the Other Side
I used a total of four images for this project: the little girl on the left, the landscape, the picture perfect family, and the picnic supplies. I created an artificial divide in the grass, making the left side darker and less vibrant than the right side. I used the angled strokes filter to blur the image of the girl on the left. I also used a filter on the family; I believe it is the dry brush filter.
