Process Work - Personal Piece

I recently finished this personal piece and thought I would share some samples 

from my collage process:

            I start with a simple hand drawn sketch that I scan it into Photoshop.

          On top of the sketch I build each character with layers of flat color and begin to

            lay in my larger background shadows.

                                                                

         After I've created all of the large shapes, I place papers/textures within the    

         shapes by using clipping masks. All facial details are added and to complete

         the illustration I lay in shadows to give the figures a raised effect.
