I had David Hockney's photo collages in mind before starting these drawings. However, once I began drawing, I realised that I did not have the necessary time to do the number of drawings required to get an effect similar to Hockney's; nor did I necessarily have the inclination, so I settled for what you see.

I am rather indifferent myself to collages, and to this one in particular. Collages usually give you more information than a single drawing or painting, and initially you are stuck by their novelty and inventiveness, but their overall effect is often more diffuse, if not weaker or more confused than a drawing of painting.
