Collage of me

Hawaiian flag, Bodyboarding, letters from my mother, girlfriend Courtney, beer bottle opener from Lovefest, Keone's (brother) hook necklace, beloved nephew Joshy, first paycheck, mail from home and the ocean.

Finally settled with this composition

 

Started with pencil, blocked in all items, added tone to the background, did some details

In progress, a few more sitting will do it

Sorry for overusing the commas

Worked on a few more items on the collage, really enjoying the process for this piece.
