Figure drawing homework- Contour Collage

I'm not sure this is actual collage. The assignment was to trace some of our blind contour drawings, and some of our gestures if we want. Then we flipped the tracing paper over and transfer it on to new paper to put together a composition using any drawing medium we want.

Tracing sheets:


Inked and ready to go:




A few colors in:



Finished. I think.:



This was actually fun. I could color this for the rest of my life or just stop now with my sanity in tact. There are some elements I would undo if I could, but I'm not going to worry about that right now.

I like the figure elements in this and how it forced me to de-construct my own ideas of the figure. I tried to give large areas some value changes that make the mind think of more figures. (does that make any sense? I'm in a hurry!!)
