The good, the bad and the ugly.

Comedy of Errors: One plus Four equals One.

I was working on a collage that turned into a overworked mess, so as anyone would, I took a match to part of it.  It burned faster than I expected and the photo emulsion smelled bad.  If I burn something again, it will be outside with a fire extinquisher.  Anyway, after everything cooled, I pasted the remnants together and scanned it.   I've been working on this image on the computer, adding colors and combining other images.  Today I decided to just make a primarily black and white piece.  I printed out the amoeba image below.

Plus the edge of some hollyhock leaves from a drawing.
Plus the black and white reverse image of another collage.
Plus this micro-section from the burned piece.
Cut, pasted, changed around and so far here's the result.
Possibly a little too dark?
