absurdi-poisson

Cut-paper collage (plus markers) postcard created for Kollage Kit theme: "Incorporate Some Drawing in Your Collage."

All the fantasy fish parts are collage, scavenged from about thirty different fish painted by French artist Samuel Fallours, around the first decade of the 18th century. Background is a list of fish illustrations in Fallours's handwriting. Green & blue wash with watercolor markers. Scales, spines, & connecti-bits drawn with fine-point markers.
