The Amazing, Extraordinary, Death-Defying Collager

I have another big collage in the works. But I have no idea what I'm going to do with it. I mean, I want to sell it, but I don't even know if anyone would be interested in buying the other one. I was also wondering if I should concentrate on compiling larger pieces with my most recent skills and experiments for a possible show in the future. I'm just really iffy about the whole networking process and the prospect of failing, since it happened with the last opportunity to showcase my art. Totally wrong venue D:
This was the Halloween masquerade party that failed, where I couldn't even sell one $2 greeting card (C'mon no one could at least humor me!) and LOST money BUYING A BEER. Not only did that kick me between the eyes, but I was kicked while I was down when some pretentious, crotchety hag asked me if my art was my nightmares, after emitting one of those scoffing laughs. Then you had the usual, mundane, exasperated sigh-fuel like, "It's like Where the Wild Things Are!" because people can't think of anything else with weird ass creatures because they are... something.... just something. arrrrrrrrgh.

SO! Without further adieu, here is a very small fraction of what's to come with this piece on the collage assembly line:
A charming fellow whose bark is worse than his bite! HAHAHAHA I went there. So I'll water color him and cut him out and glue him and all that jazz that goes into collaging lalaalalalala! *broken music notes fall out of my face*
I'm going to see what other random creatures I will never do anything with are sitting around being lazy good-for-nothins that need to get a goddam job. The bums! I'm using a news paper background again because it's my personal artistic statement/gimmick that's supposed to open people's eyes to the lack of reality behind news stories. The part of the newspaper I'm using to bolster this grave and sobering message are the funnies. See what I did there?
My list of things to do hasn't changed since yesterday. I mean, I did stuff. I just didn't complete any of it yet. That water color painting will be coming to a close soon, though. And that about wraps this up.
