That Was So Much Fun I Did It Again

Took another unloved painting, cut it up, painted and drew with ink and collaged on the pieces, then put them together into a triptych.


Maybe I'm getting carried away........

Another Painting Metamorphosis

 Took a painting from 2020 that I never liked much and cut it into thirds. Began painting on one of the pieces, intending to make three totally different paintings out of them. As I blithely painted and collaged, it occurred to me to make a triptych, something I've never done. So on with the painting and collaging for hours, and then I got stuck on how to arrange the resulting creations. I need help! Which of these four possible arrangements would make the most effective piece of art???

I started with an arrangement that closely resembled the original piece, only with more stuff on it:

Red Head Guitarist 1


That seemed a little dull, so I offset one of the pieces:

Red Head Guitarist 2


Still playing around with them, I tried this: 

Red Head Guitarist 3

And then I got carried away:

Red Head Guitarist 4

NOW WHAT????
