This is a closeup of my collage and decoupage project as it looked on September 23. I am covering a heart-shaped box with bits of printed metallic ribbon. I cropped this view from a photo of the predominantly gold area around the outside of the box. Apart from a few small gaps, this part of the project is almost done. The closeup shows what I mean when I say this is collage. As I fit the pieces together, I am thinking about shape, pattern, and color. Thousands of tiny decisions go into making this work. But that is always true of art. And of life.
