Let’s get wordy with Gargolyles!

Today’s 64 Million Artists prompt is to take a word and make it beautiful! The literal interpretation would mean using calligraphy – but I m going to show you how to master the technique of collage.

The word I am going to use is gargoyle. I’m going to try and make it beautiful using a limited palate of collage papers and ink. 

Collage is the use of paper to create images. It is a versatile medium that can be complicated and details or as I use collage, big shapes.

I’m going to show you a way to quickly create an image using torn paper very quickly sculpted into the shapes of the reference image.
