In high school, I wrote a love poem called "Ribbons of Passion" and had it translated into French (though I can't remember why). This poem sat in a folder for years until I was given an assignment in a Life Drawing class at college to create a collage drawing of the human form that incorporated text. So I took three of the more finished gesture drawings I had done in class of the nude model that fit within a warm color scheme and composited them together on a Masonite panel. To blend the multiple pieces of paper together, the background was filled with a purplish-red pastel I had used in all the drawings and the French translation of the love poem was written in the yellow pastel from the highlights of the figures to fill the background.
