Arranging

I moved on to a quiet table and laid out all of my prints in front of me. I spent some time thinking about pages and their arrangement and order.

What types of images work best beside each other?
How can I be consistent, but interesting/not the same throughout?
How do you vary page layouts without them becoming disjointed?

whoaaaaaa!

I took some pictures of layouts that I had tried. Where I've overlapped two pieces of paper, that means I intend to merge those together digitally. For example: a texture and a line drawing - they will become one side of the double page format eventually.

The plan is to add colour digitally, however my use of it will be sparing and subtle. I just want small flecks of colour to add a bit of visual interest, nothing that overpowers the contents.

These photos are not finished pages, they're just to help me get an idea. I may add more things yet.
