Big Things almost out of the works. So close I can almost taste it...

I'm just toying with ideas, trying to see what sticks.

I can't decide which of these to use.

For my final I'm conceiving something akin to our first assignment, Destroy the Icon. I'll be working with collage (digital and handmade) but I won't be using any iconic photograph. Instead I'll use old/new magazine clippings alongside paintings & scanographs (for texture, atmosphere). The images above convey the mood and the style I'm striving for. I don't have a particular image set picked out, but I have a stack of old national geographics.

I'm shooting for an ethereal merge of nature and civilization.

(For these 8 images I'm picturing a radially unsymmetrical view of the roots and grass, composited into a globular form)
