'Frankenstein' by Mary Shelley

For my next collage I am going to research Frankenstein by Mary Shelley. After reading the plot overview online I realised that I must have read Frankenstein when I was at school. It vaguely came back to me slightly. I can't remember whether I enjoyed the book (at the age of 14 I probably didn't enjoy it). Below are some notes I made whilst reading plot synopses online.


After reading, I decided that this collage would be a collection of imagery rather than a scene depiction. 


Whilst reading I did a few quick ink sketches of imagery. I decided to get stuck straight in as time is running out.


These are my collages scanned in and placed on a document so far. The mixture of colours are quite uneasy on the eye, which is what I wanted as Frankenstein describes the monsters grotesque features with "disgust and fear".
