I was expecting to post the next sets of collages much sooner, but, due to a few health problems, NOT COVID, thank goodness, I had to delay. So although these collages have been done for a while now, there was a lot of scanning and preparation to deal with before I could finally post.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have also taken a big step, for me, and decided to put the collages in our Etsy<\/strong> shop FoundMadeArt<\/strong><\/a>! I\u2019m hoping they\u2019ll fall nicely into that \u201caffordable art<\/em>\u201d niche, something colourful and small to jazz up someone\u2019s walls. I\u2019ve kept them priced quite inexpensively ($60 Cdn), for a one-of-a-kind art work, and hope that they\u2019ll make a nice gift for someone else or just for yourself. We all need a little treat, right? Although they are being sold unframed, here is a little example of one framed. We love to find frames at thrift stores and really encourage everyone to try that too. Great recycling! We’ll be adding more as we go along. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Small Abstract Paper Collage,5x 5.5 inches (approx 13 x 14 cm)created with paper, tissue, paint, pencil crayon. Helen Bushell <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The next batch of 6 collages are again very small, just image size 5 x 5.5 inches (approx 13 x 14 cm), and would work quite nicely framed and hung in groups too. Each composition is created with layers of paper, tissue, painted paper, black and white prints of seeds from the garden like cardoon or sweet pea, even fennel seeds. In some, there is even a bit of tissue from patterns for sewing. Nothing wasted around here\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
