Moonchild

Healing Roots

Moonchild Collage Commission

I was asked to make a collage by a local woman. She told me about her story (which I will keep private) and asked if i could interpret it through collage. I have to admit, this was a nerve-wrecking task, as her story is her story, and it’s not easy decoding someone’s memories and emotions! But my nerves turned to relief when I saw her delight with the finished product. She was super pleased with the result, and apparently I translated her story to collage very well!

As this collage was a commission, I allowed my client to name the collage. I added the ‘Healing Roots’ as the subtitle as I thought it reflected her story well.

The Process

I haven’t really ever posted pictures of what the images look like before they go through the cutting process, I always explain how they are made, but I usually show the finished version.

Below are some of the images I used to make Moonchild, before I print them off, I resize, add special effects and play around with the colours, so they suit the theme or the clients colour preference.

Commissions

If you would like to discuss any ideas you have in mind, that you would like to see come alive through collage, please feel free to Contact me for a free consultation.
