Concept Sketch 3

My goal for this sketch was to get at some of my ideas without depicting any sort of buildings like I have done in my previous 2 concept sketches. A couple years ago I started collecting tin types - mainly portraits - that I would find in antique shops and yard sales in upstate New York. I'm not quite sure what drew me to these photographs, but I suppose I found them slightly humorous. Anyway I thought the images were relevant because they represent the historical aspects that I'd like to have show up in my thesis. In other words, they tell a story. So I started collaging over one of these images using brightly colored boxes, etc. in hopes of fleshing out some ideas about how to add on to this narrative.
