Three versions of a not collage (as Olga put it!) today. It's interesting and useful to take photos as I go - that one step's remove seems to clarify the image and helps me to consider/evaluate it.
I love the idea of the 'not-collage' and capturing them with digital images opens up a whole range of other possibilities. I realized recently that I could use digital images of my paintings to edit/crop/reorganize them for tapestry designs. In the past, I used color copies and scissors, but only worked up to a certain size.
I am not surprised that it's difficult to design with such simple shapes, that makes sense to me. Simple designs have to be just right.

Great stuff Meabh - hopefully less labour intensive as well.
