A few years back, a friend of mine got a summer job at Yellowstone National Park, so a group of us decided to make a road trip of it and drive him to Wyoming. We’re all getting older and moving away, so this was one of the last times that we would all be together, especially for an extended length of time. Yellowstone is a beautiful park, but I didn’t enjoy the trip so much because of the scenery but because of the people I was with, and the celebration of how far we’d come. Our last night, on the way back, we stayed in the house of some relative of a guy on the trip in Middle-of-Nowhere, North Dakota. This collage is that night, when we stayed up late into the night playing pinball and drinking soda.

Homework 3 – Cubist Contour Collage
This collage features four of the items in my still life contour drawing, as well as a piano drawing, house and car keys, and some sheet music as well. The intent of this piece is to mimic Georges Braque and Pablo Picasso in making a collage. The four still life items can be seen below before they were cut up for the piece.
