Lil Peep Collage Portrait

During the COVID-19 Pandemic lockdown, I took the time to create a series of collage portraits on 9”x12” watercolor paper. This Lil Peep collage was created using a collection of previously read magazines, found imagery, and watercolor markers. Earl Lube Paste was used to adhere the ephemera to the paper and was additionally used as a sealant. This piece was them placed in a white box frame before being shipped to a collector in NYC.
