Darell Collages/ mix media

My collages on the other hand came about as away to challenge myself. I feel as an artist you have to continue to challenge yourself in many different ways to continue to improve. I wanted to continue the same message that I’m conveying in my painting but in a different way. So I decided to take pictures that in there normal environment when I found them seemed helpless, and challenge myself to juxtapose them in away where they turn form ugly to beautiful, to make a bad situation good. In this way I’m saying no matter how bad a situation is, keep your head up and make it better. My journey as an artist will continue to encourage everyone to follow their dreams and to work had to obtain them.
