Hi Katherine!

I think you need little by way of advice but you do need to have self-confidence! Your assembled image is fascinating although next time you may wish to use a more complex subject. The main thing is that you enjoy making and sharing.

Believe in yourself!

It's rather David Hockney-esque... I like it. If anything, I would increase the stand-out by either: a) making each shot more different in terms of exposure so the edges stand out more or; b) add a slim polaroid-type frame to each image to achieve the same thing...

Could look evn more edgy with some stunning, bespoke framing (perhaps the actual precise shape of the perimeter) as well?!

Good luck

Katherine:

What Simon George said about David Hockney suggests a seminal relevance to this way of seeing and making. He's right, you should go see his works (perhaps via internet) to see what has been done in this mode and ask yourself how one might go beyond the perameters of his style of working, so as to push yourself toward a more personal vision and ways of making? Another person for whom you should see the works of is Harry Calahan. Though he is more of an old timer his visual ideas and constructs may inspire another whole truth to you. I love the way these constructs question the photo as object and the picture frame. I can't wait to see what this way of seeing and making will evolve to, rather exciting, don't you think? Simon George also made some additional suggestions I think would be valuable for you to consider. Keep it up and imagine beyond that which is known. Thanx very much for your works!
