1. PRE-COMPOSITION #1
Fig 2.4
Fig 2.5
There was a feature in my magazine about Sherlock Holmes, so I
wanted to make a collage with Sherlock Holmes as the theme, and
I cut out the key items of the case that Sherlock Holmes
investigated in the magazine and his big portrait to make a
collage. I want to make the effect that Sherlock Holmes is
surrounded by layers of cases he solved.
2. PRE-COMPOSITION #2

For this collage, I chose all the elements of the magazine about
dark blue and water, and wanted to express the harmony of colors
and the tranquility of dark blue.

Fig 2.7
The Collage Elements magazine has a retro feel to it, so I followed it and wanted to make a retro art collage.
4. PRE-COMPOSITION#4

This image was inspired by the previous one, I found all the
items that matched the blue-green hue and wanted to express the
feeling of crystal clear.
