My intent for this piece was to create an organism in its natural habitat. For the background, I collaged circular pieces of paper and glued them in clusters to ass a simple nature look. For the antelope, I really wanted to include the stripe on its back, so I used white colored pencil to add it in. To get the form of the antelope, I layered colored pencils over and over to saturate the paper, creating the form. Finally, to make the composition more interesting, I cut around the circular edges instead of cutting a straight line through it (on the right.)
