Collage: (definition according to Wikipedia): from the French coller, "to glue", "to stick together", is a technique of art creation, primarily used in visual arts, but music too, by which art results from an assemblage of different forms, thus creating a new whole.
Prepping for my Solo Show at Art Happens on Tarboro, starting February 2 and running through February 29. It is 100 Days of Collage, I started this series in the spring of 2023. It includes Doors, Bridges, Stairs, Birds, Trees, Flowers, Time, Travel, Numbers, Music, Color Spectrum, Shapes, Textures and Dog and Cats.
It was a creative experience and learning opportunity. I found out I love creating collages from the design, harvesting and creating materials, learning about adhesives, finishes and more.
I am now working on an Art Journal with daily collages- minimal works and experimental work.
The hunt for materials has been fascinating- Washington Post from early 2000's, Life from 1960's, Popular Photography from the 1940's, American Girl from the 1960's, National Geographic, old wrapping paper, old newspapers and more for future works.
